PHP : file_get_contents($loc) fails

Question

I just moved a project from localhost over to my remote server, and noticed that some of my scripts stopped working. Most importantly was one that relied upon file_get

Answer 1

Also you can try curl:

$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://url.url');
$result = curl_exec($curl);
curl_close($curl);

And you get what you want in $result.
