cURL

[The Little Guy]

Why when I use cURL, some sites display: The document has moved here.

 

My code:

			$url = $_GET['p'];
		$ch = curl_init();
		$timeout = 5; // set to zero for no timeout
		curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
		curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
		curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, $timeout);
		$file_contents = curl_exec($ch);
		curl_close($ch);

		// display file
		echo $file_contents;

<?php
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
?>

 

It's possible the site has moved and apache is doing a header redirect to the page in question, but you don't have cURL enabled to follow it [off by default I believe].

 

edit: I remember when  I was testing my apache redirect stuff, I didn't even see the page change before I was at my destination because my browser followed so fast.

Cool!

Some sites, such as facebook say:

 

You are using an incompatible web browser.

 

any way I can fix that?

[The Little Guy]

got it!

 

 

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']);

any way to get around a 400 error?
