[SOLVED] curl results

[Lefu]

Dear all,

 

I have this code:

$ch = curl_init();

$timeout = 0; // set to zero for no timeout

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://localhost/example/urlinclude.php?contentid=3');

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, $timeout);

$file_contents = curl_exec($ch);

curl_close($ch);

echo $file_contents;

 

The results is

hello world' ?>

 

instead of

hello world

 

the code in urlinclude.php file is

$code = "echo '<h1>hello world</h1>' ";

echo "<? $code ?>";

 

I am fetching my code from the mysql db, I need to output the results on the screen.

allow_url_include=off

 

how can I achieve the results?

 

thanks a lot for your input.

this:

 

$code = "echo '<h1>hello world</h1>' ";
echo "<? $code ?>";

 

quite possible should be:

 

$code = "echo '<h1>hello world</h1>'; ";
echo '<?php $code ?>';

so you want to grab a code from another server - and then execute it on yours? (dangerous but ah well):

 

look into eval() function - www.php.net/eval

<?php

$code = '<h1>hello world</h1>';
echo $code;

?>

If you want to store php code in a variable or database, look into using eval().
