You can do two things-
1. Read the file by providing a base directory path of the server
where the
file exist.
Something like- //htdocs/httpfolder/files/audio/yourfile.mp3
You can take this in a variable " //htdocs/httpfolder/files/audio/".
2. Try using file_get_contents.
Something like $file = file_get_contents('
http://www.example.com/audio/file.mp3', false, $context);
Hope this helps.
Thanks for your help Gaurav,
After a few tests based on your suggestions - I noticed why I think
there was a problem:
this line:
elseif (! file_exists( $path ) )
worked locally but failed when the path was a http url:
$directory = "http://mysite.com/test1/";;
so when I took out that elseif then readfile("$path"); did work
SO: Is there a php function that can work like file_exists( $path )
and tell if the file exists but work from a URL like:
$thisfile = "http://mysite.com/test1/audio.mp3";;
Thanks,
