note 49876 added to function.file-exists

Was wondering if you can use this: if(file_include("http://www.remote-server.com/somefile.php")) echo "True";else echo "False"; I'm currently using it, but it is echo's false.. Any ideas? (Yes the file really does exist.) ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.file-exists.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+49876 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49876&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49876&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49876&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49876&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49876&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+49876&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
