Nice to hear that! If you expect heavy traffic on the site using that script you might want try to save some DNS and http connection overhead by stating the url with http://localhost/ and so on. Given that the server's OS is unix based, it may also work to execute the php-script like a shell script if the php environment is set accordingly. In case of a image processing script, this may take a huge load of work away from your apache or wahterver server, and restrict it to the php processor only. (the data stream won't be routed over the internet deamon and the webserver on port 80) In order to do so, try $buffer = `php /var/www/thescript.php`; // or whatever location your script is in ... Instead of $buffer = file_get_contents("http://localblah...";); But if it's a rented server, apache overhead isn't your concern, so go on and let your provider worry about it! :-D Jan -----Original Message----- From: Mike [mailto:zmen8@xxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, August 06, 2007 12:45 AM To: php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Problems with file_get_contents() and local PHP file Hah, it works! I had to fiddle around a few other errors but that did the trick!
