Note Submitter: cpurruc fh-landshut de ---- Both backports are bad! For getting header meta data, you should use HEAD instead of GET. See http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec9.html#sec9.4 for details! <?php /** * @return array * @param string $url * @desc Fetches all the headers * @author cpurruc fh-landshut de */ function get_headers_php4( $url ) { $url_info = parse_url( $url ); $fp = fsockopen( $url_info['host'],80,$errno,$errstr,30 ); if ($fp) { $head = "HEAD ".$url_info['path']."?".$url_info['query']." HTTP/1.0\r\n" . "Host: ".$url_info['host']."\r\n\r\n"; fputs( $fp, $head ); while( !feof($fp ) ) { $header[] = fgets( $fp, 1024 ); } return $header; } } ?>
