How do I customize the User-Agent when using fopen() or file() to open a remote file? PHP use "PHP/4.2.3-dev" on my system as the User-Agent when I using file() function to retrive a remote file. Howerver, some servers will refuse to serve browsers other than Mozilla compatible and return a 403 code. Is there any method to let me define User-Agent for my own? Thanks!
