conflict for function copy() .

[bandito40]

HI,

I am using the copy() function to download a web page as shown in this
example:
[php]
$userAgent = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];
$context_options = array (
'http' => array (
'method' => 'GET',
'header'=> "User-Agent: $userAgent"

)
);

$context = stream_context_create($context_options);
copy("http://www.example.com", "test/test.html", $context);[/php]

However, contrary to the PHP document for the copy() function:

bool copy ( string $source , string $dest [, resource $context ] )

it returns the following error:

Warning: Wrong parameter count for copy() in /var/www/printer/
test2.php on line 17

The copy() works fine except when the third parameter is included but,
in this case it returns http code 403 because the User-Agent isn't
specified. Is it possible to include the third parameter hence,
resource $context as stated in the documentation, is this a bug, or is
there something wrong with my code?

I am using Ubuntu/Linux 7.04 and php 5.2.1.

Thanks,

Carl

Perhaps trying this with your array structure (adding line returns to the header info)?

$context_options = array (
        'http' => array (
            'method' => 'GET',
            'header'=> "User-Agent: $userAgent \r\n"
 
            )
        );

Thanks for the reply. I actually over looked that. I should have noticed it on the php site. Sometimes you need another pair of eyes.
