"PHP Browser" - no CURL please


poirot

Recommended Posts

I need some help... I want to make a reasonably capable "PHP browser" with cookie/POST support.
So far, I managed to do it with fsockopen(). But as you know, some hosting services will disable fsockopen or even allow_url_fopen, making life difficult.

Is there any way around? I just want a general direction, maybe a function name...
Thanks  ;)

Well then you need cURL.
I know you put "no curl please" in the title but if you really want to do this then it's definitely the best, fastest option.
Otherwise, [b]fopen[/b] or [b]file_get_contents[/b].
As you said sometimes they're blocked and if you don't have cURL then there isn't really much else you can do, they're your options.
