Hi.

Since I'm a kid I don't wanna pay to have a homepage yet, so I'm using www.hotserv.dk.
Well, my problem is that I need to get som information from another page, who isn't on my site.
And since my host has disabled URL file-acces I can't get it.
This is the error when I try opening a page:

Warning: fopen() [function.fopen]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /var/www/hotserv.dk/users/gameworld/PHPtester/show.php(23) : eval()'d code on line 3

Warning: fopen(http://www.gameworld.hotserv.dk/index.php) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in /var/www/hotserv.dk/users/gameworld/PHPtester/show.php(23) : eval()'d code on line 3

Do you know any way I can get around this?

PHP Code:

<?php



$source = file_get_contents( 'http://www.website.com' );



?>

aslong as you aint in save mode for php

Still getting the same error.
Perhaps I could upload some .htaccess?

Try placing this in htaccess

Code:

php_value allow_url_fopen 1

[Frbahan]

What if I can't get the htaccess?
It's made that way that you can't get the file..

[Nico]

Hm, if it's not there... try to create a new one and place it in the main directory.

[Frbahan]

The is already one in the main directory, but if I try getting it on my computer, I can't.

try placing this code on top of your page:

PHP Code:

ini_set('allow_url_fopen', true); 

don't know if it's gonna work, but give it a try. If you only need the html of the page, you could use fsockopen to get it as well (example from php.net):

PHP Code:

$fp = fsockopen("www.example.com", 80, $errno, $errstr, 30);

if (!$fp) {

   echo "$errstr ($errno)<br />\n";

} else {

   $out = "GET / HTTP/1.1\r\n";

   $out .= "Host: www.example.com\r\n";

   $out .= "Connection: Close\r\n\r\n";



   fwrite($fp, $out);

   while (!feof($fp)) {

       echo fgets($fp, 128);

   }

   fclose($fp);

}

You might try cURL, if it's on your server.
