I was sitting here at work (working of course!) thinking about how some sites are blocked etc from
viewing... Is it possible with PHP to do something like this:
Have a page where I can create kind of a middle man. I mean the PHP can be hosted on my server, it
goes to the site I'd want to view (lets say www.php.net). It then relays it to my browser but
as if it is coming from my server. So can it grab the pages, temp write them and server them over
to me?
I know it seems kind of strange but I am curious about it....
