[SOLVED] Quick questions

[paulman888888]

I have a script that i am going to give out.

I would like that script to contact my site for a few reasons,

1 being updates,

and the 2nd i would like to know when people are useing my script.

 

So can i do something like this?

<?php require('http://www.somesite.com/something.php'); ?>

 

Thankyou for all the help

you can use fopen function

You can't pull a script from an external site easily and without permission from the owner.

You might want to use some form of output reading of an external page and use preg_match. In which case you will want to learn about fsocket and regular expressions.

And I would just like to point out that unless you obfuscate your code to the point of no return, people can very easily remove that sort of stuff.

Also, for that line of code to work, both allow_url_fopen and allow_url_include settings must be on.
