If you're using fopen to open a URL that requires authorization, you might need to force a
HTTP/1.0 request for it since fopen won't support HTTP/1.1 requests. You can do that by setting
your user_agent to one that is known only to support HTTP/1.0 (most webservers will be configured to
force HTTP/1.0 for some browsers). Here's what worked for me:
<?php
$returned=URLopen("http://$username:$password@example.com");
function URLopen($url)
{
// Fake the browser type
ini_set('user_agent','MSIE 4\.0b2;');
$dh = fopen("$url",'r');
$result = fread($dh,8192);
return $result;
}
?>
