Re: file_get_contents and https

Thanks, Jay.

I tried it first with a simple "http://"; call, and that worked fine. So unless "https:..." requires something additional in the way of arguments, that doesn't seem to be the issue.

I'm hoping someone who has done this remembers what special installation issues there might be. When I look on the web I see lots of discussion, but it's pretty hard to figure out how much of it is currently applicable and how much of it is ancient history.

I am new to PHP; using Apache 2.2 and PHP 5/Windows. I'd like to do
this:

$x = file_get_contents("https://user:pw@xxxxxxx";)

I get:

Warning: file_get_contents(https://...) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: Invalid argument in ... on line...
[/snip]

The warning that you get is "Invalid argument..." Have you read
http://us2.php.net/file_get_contents to make sure that you are including
all needed arguments?
The URL for file_get_contents doesn't give many clues to its use with https.
