Hi!
Something strange:
A script, that uses file("http://xyz.com") does work on
one sever!
Then I copied it to another server (physically more far away from the
server from which I fetch the html-page with file()) - same PHP ...
Now file() returns always an empty string (about in 1 try out of 1000 it
is successful!!!! - I tested it!!)
Is there another method, to fetch a html-page?
PHP runs in safe mode - so '$source=
lynx -source http://xyz.com/`' won't
work!
thanks
witty
