warning php_hostconnect: connect failed

Hi, I'm trying to read some webpage in a file. I've got some code from de php.net website: <?php // get a web page into an array and print it out $fcontents = file ('http://www.php.net'); while (list ($line_num, $line) = each ($fcontents)) { echo "<b>Line $line_num:</b> " . htmlspecialchars ($line) . "<br>\n"; } // get a web page into a string $fcontents = join ('', file ('http://www.php.net')); ?> When I'm trying to run this code I get the following errors: Warning: php_hostconnect: connect failed in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\htdocs/source/screener.php on line 17 Warning: file("http://www.php.net") - Bad file descriptor in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\htdocs/source/screener.php on line 17 Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\htdocs/source/screener.php on line 17 What does this mean? Is it a configuration problem? When I try this code with some local file it works very well. I'm a windows user.
