File_get_contents HTTP Request Error
I wrote simple PHP code to get some url content but it doesn't work it returns this error
file_get_contents ( http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v508/n7496/full/nature13001.html ) [function.file-get-contents]: Failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP / 1.0 401 Unauthorized
here is my code. please help me.tnx
$content=file_get_contents('http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v508/n7496/full/nature13001.html');
echo $content;
Here's an alternative to file_get_contents using cURL
$url = 'http://www.example.com';
$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
$data = curl_exec($curl);
curl_close($curl);
You might want to add this curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_ENCODING ,"");
one if you are facing a coding issue.
-
Open the page with a browser and with the console open, check that the server is indeed sending 401s even when the page is being submitted and viewed
-
In php, open url in an alternative way to ignore the error (see http://php.net/manual/en/context.http.php )
-
You will also notice that this is gzip-encoded, see http://php.net/manual/en/function.gzinflate.php
Happy hack!
