I need to open a remote file with file() and I would like to put it
inside a try-catch but as far as I can tell file() does not raise an
exception if it fails. The following code:
try {
$data = file('http://myserver.com/myfile.txt');
$date = substr($data, 0);
} catch (Exception $e) {
$data = "it failed";
}
echo $data;
echoes a warning:
Warning: file('http://myserver.com/myfile.txt')
[function.file]:
failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
