There is a setting within PHP that either allows or denies you the ability to access remote URLs like the one in your example. You will need to make sure that in your php.ini configuration file that you have allow_url_fopen set to '1' and that it is not diabled. Here is the page that references these settings: http://us2.php.net/manual/en/ini.php#ini.list It is the second one in the big list of things. I noticed that they also added a new one as of v5.2.0 It is for the allow_url_include You might need to do something with this also. Not sure. But, I would start with making sure that the allow_url_fopen is set to '1'. If you need to change the value, make sure that you restart your web server so the settings will take effect. Hope this helps. -- Jim Lucas "Some men are born to greatness, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them." Twelfth Night, Act II, Scene V by William Shakespeare

I'll bet money the sys admins won't turn it on for her. now the real question! why is code that blatantly belongs to ecofriendz.com trying to grab output from a 'page script' that exists in the same site ... it's just plain wrong to have site screen scraping it's own output, the underlying data should be retrieved from the datasource directly. maybe you'd care to explain what it is your trying to achieve? > > There is a setting within PHP that either allows or denies you the > ability to access remote URLs like the one in your example. > > You will need to make sure that in your php.ini configuration file that > you have allow_url_fopen set to '1' and that it is not diabled. > > Here is the page that references these settings: > http://us2.php.net/manual/en/ini.php#ini.list > > It is the second one in the big list of things.
