FOpen problem

hey guys, i use Fopen to get the contents from a web page, but I get this
error...

Warning: fopen(http://seb.sleepbot.com:8000/played.html): failed to open
stream: HTTP request failed! ICY 400 Server Full

I am confused as to why I would get this error, because going to the website
manually, it's just fine!! The site isn't even full or anything. Is there
a workaround? Thanks

Try something like $page = file(http://seb.sleepbot.com:8000/played.html);

oh, i forgot the speech marks!

put the speech marks before and after the link within the brackets, like
this:

$page = file("http://seb.sleepbot.co m:8000/played.html");

That should work

No that doesn't work. in fact that was what I tried the first time around.
For some reason I went to a this site that allows u to send a HTTP request
to any URL (it is written in CGI). You just put theURL in the form and
press the send button. And it easily retrived the page.

This is what the problem is. I have no problem using fopen with any other
site. it is just this particular site that is giving me a headache and I
don't know why. Why would it work with that CGI site, but not work with my
PHP code?

this is the site I am trying to extract text from
http://seb.sleepbot.com:8000/played.html. If anyone can do it, please let
me know please! thanks :)

Well, I don't think it's a PHP problem as I've just tried to access that
site myself with the file() thingy and all I get back is a blank page so it
might be something to do with shoutcast or even port numbers. Fraid I can't
help further than that as I'm not an expert!

I can't access that site from my computer. Well ... it returns

hey pedro, thanks for your reply. if you go to this site
http://rexswain.com/httpview.html and type in that address, it will
actually return the content for you! it is written in CGI. my question is,
how are they able to do it successfully, and why are we having a hard
time?!! hehehehe

That's easy:

<?php
if (gethostbyaddre ss($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDRESS '] == $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDRESS '])) {
exit($garbage);
}
// else continue with proper content

I'm confused too. It is quite confusing, isn't it?

It seems the server's response depends on the User-Agent header sent
in the request. That's a bit silly if you ask me.
Is there a workaround?


Connect using fsockopen and send a request satisfying the server's
conditions. I've no clue what they are. There is some documentation
for the SHOUTcast server, but don't hold your breath.

You might get lucky by sending:

GET /played.html HTTP/1.1
Host: seb.sleepbot.co m:8000
User-Agent: Mozilla
Connection: close
