@blytung Has a nice function to replace that function
<?php
$url = "http://www.example.org/";
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 5);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$contents = curl_exec($ch);
if (curl_errno($ch)) {
echo curl_error($ch);
echo "\n<br />";
$contents="";
} else {
curl_close($ch);
}
if (!is_string($contents) || !strlen($contents)) {
echo "Failed to get contents.";
$contents="";
}
echo $contents;
?>
