I'd be surprised if this doesn't error out, but maybe you just need E_ALL to see the E_NOTICE you've been ignoring. At any rate, you need quotes, whether you realize it or not. > if file_exists($x) .... $x, at this point, is either FALSE because fopen() failed, or an open file handle. file_exists() expects the path to a file name (a string). Perhaps you meant: file_exists("http://www.example.com"); http://php.net/file_exists specifically links to the kinds of stream-wrappers that are and aren't supported.
