note 70250 added to function.fopen

Be sure to trim all white space from your input variable before using fopen(). If you do: $url='http://www.php.net '; $handle = fopen($url, "r"); fclose($handle); You'll get a 404. But if you do: $url='http://www.php.net '; $handle = fopen(trim($url), "r"); fclose($handle); It works ok. ---- Server IP: 81.92.200.26 Probable Submitter: 87.196.31.89 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fopen.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/70250 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70250/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70250/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70250/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70250/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70250/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70250/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70250 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/70250 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
