PHP ini file_get_contents external url
Complementing Aillyn’s answer, you could use a function like the one below to mimic the behavior of file_get_contents: function get_content($URL){ $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $URL); $data = curl_exec($ch); curl_close($ch); return $data; } echo get_content(‘http://example.com’);
