note 44371 deleted from function.file-get-contents by tomsommer

Note Submitter: prashar@uiuc.edu ---- I ran into issues using file_get_contents(), even though I'm running PHP 5.0. file() seems to work, though, so I wrote my own flavor: if (!function_exists('file_get_contents')) { function file_get_contents($url) { $array = file($url); $size = count($array); if ($size >= 0) $string = $array[0]; for ($i = 1; $i < $size; $i++) { $string = $string . "\n" . $array[$i]; echo $array[$i]; } return $string; } } I know, the code's hackish and it leaves out the second parameter, but I blame needing the function in a hurry.
