First of all, thanks for taking the time to respond.
I had tried fsockopen, but here's the problem. The
following calls work as expected, returning a valid file
pointer for valid urls and FALSE for invalid urls:
$fp = fsockopen("www.example.com", 80, $errno, $errstr, 30);
$fp = fsockopen("www.youtube.com", 80, $errno, $errstr, 30);
$fp = fsockopen("www.this_url_is_not_valid.com", 80, $errno, $errstr, 30);
The call below does not work and always returns FALSE.
If I enter the url in a web browser, it works fine, but
fsockopen does not like it.
$fp = fsockopen("www.youtube.com/v/JqO8ZevPJNk", 80, $errno, $errstr, 30);
I think it has something to do with the way YouTube
works. Any clues?
