RE: Bug #1032 Updated: file() not retrieving GIF properly

However, I really want to be opening a URL, not a file. How can I open a URL containing binary data and read the entire contents into a variable? -----Original Message----- From: Bug Database [mailto:php-dev@lists.php.net] Sent: Tuesday, January 05, 1999 9:37 PM To: birnbaum@k2design.com Subject: [PHP-DEV] Bug #1032 Updated: file() not retrieving GIF properly ID: 1032 Updated by: rasmus Reported By: birnbaum@k2design.com Status: Closed Bug Type: Misbehaving function Assigned To: Comments: implode(file()) is going to lose carriage return characters and is thus not binary-safe. You should be using fread() here.
