quick php question?

Does this make any sense to any of you?

1. I have a PHP site - it loads all pages referencing < head.inc.php >

2. I need a curl feature to include in the < head.inc.php > file that performs 1 of 2 things.

Step 1 - downloads a webpage that contains YES or NO only from a different server and based on the results either:

(a) result = yes (does nothing - page loads as normal)
(b) result = no (forwards the user to a different website address)

it makes sense. so what's the question?

lets see if it will let me write it in here... but you dont need curl at all.

Code:

$url = "url";

$result = file ($url);

if($result = "yes"){

 echo "yes";

}else{

 echo "no";

}

that should work, or something along those lines.

Code:

$url = "url";

$result = file ($url);

if($result && $result[0] == "yes"){

 echo "yes";

}else{

 echo "no";

}

sorry, that is better. my bad.

but that would only work if fopen is allowed to get URLs, if not then you still need curl

This whole design is absolutely atrocious and going to cause not only latency through this major bottleneck, but one hell of a point of failure.

If you use file(), or cURL, set a reasonable timeout value.

why - he'll need curl since the page is on a different server as is a script not a flat file.
