I dunno what you did wrong with fsockopen...
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?
Did you take a look at the error numbers / messages returned by
fsockopen? What do they say? I can't see any problems with your code
either. So, either the call gets stuck maybe due to some
configuration on your machine (you can simply test it by changing you
fsockopen call to e.g. www.php.net - or your lolcalhost), or - as you
already mentioned - it is youTube that blocks your calls in some way
(therefore, error message might give you a clue why).
Another thing that poped up in my mind - curl. Tried that?
