note 72317 added to function.stream-context-create

Here's an example of retrieving a page which requests a username and password using the basic authorization scheme. This calls the w3.org web page validator for a password protected page. //$fileurl contains page to validate $validateurl="http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=$fileurl"; $cred = sprintf('Authorization: Basic %s', base64_encode('username:password') ); $opts = array( 'http'=>array( 'method'=>'GET', 'header'=>$cred) ); $ctx = stream_context_create($opts); $validate=file_get_contents($validateurl,false,$ctx); ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 65.113.125.145 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.stream-context-create.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/72317 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72317/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72317/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72317/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72317/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72317/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72317/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72317 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/72317 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
