note 100594 added to function.parse-ini-string

Function parse_ini_file doesn't parse a remote ini file if allow_url_include is off. But if allow_url_fopen is on, you can use parse_ini_string to parse a remote ini file after read its contents. <?php /** * Assume that; allow_url_include=0 and allow_url_fopen=1 * (default values in php.ini) */ $iniUrl = 'http://computername/remote/config.ini'; /** * Warning: parse_ini_file(): http:// wrapper is disabled in the server configuration by allow_url_include=0 */ $config = parse_ini_file($iniUrl); /** * works fine */ $config = parse_ini_string(file_get_contents($iniUrl)); ?> ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 78.185.17.50 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.parse-ini-string.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/100594 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100594/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100594/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100594/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100594/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100594/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100594/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100594 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/100594 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
