Worked fine with PHP 4.2.2 too. :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-01-31 13:15:11] jprins at ision dot nl Changed the include into readfile, but same result ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-01-31 12:25:40] pollita@php.net (1) In your test script dump the contents of $http_response_header, not $http_response_headers. (2) Use readfile() when all you're including is content and not actual PHP code. Using include() on a remote URL which you don't control is a security risk and a completely unnecessary one in this context. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-01-31 10:46:34] jprins at ision dot nl Tom, thanks for the quick response, the page still fails on my system. Here's a link to phpinfo. http://www.refresh.cx/php-info.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-01-31 10:40:40] tomsommer@php.net Your testing link works (again?)... I thereby assume this was not a bug in PHP, rather a faulty server/php-setup ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
