In this constellation, there was no $url["query"] and i got an error message. So this is my solution for that: $new_url = $url['scheme'].'://'.$url['host'].$url['path'].(array_key_exists('query', $url) && $url['query'] ? '?'.$url['query'] : ''); Maybe it´s usefull for someone. Nice greetings and a big thank you for this workaround. Andy Wonderful, saved my life :) I used it on an connector which i wrote for plugging Wordpress and CakePHP together. In this constellation, there was no $url["query"] and i got an error message. So this is my solution for that:

$new_url = $url['scheme'].’://’.$url['host'].$url['path'].(array_key_exists(‘query’, $url) && $url['query'] ? ‘?’.$url['query'] : ”);

Maybe it´s usefull for someone.

Nice greetings and a big thank you for this workaround.

also, error in line 6, should be:

if (ini_get(‘open_basedir’) == ” && ini_get(’safe_mode’) == ‘Off’){

in my case I also had to change the safe mode check because safe mode off is an empty string:

if (ini_get(‘open_basedir’) == ” && ini_get(’safe_mode’ == ”)){

I wonder if we could mod the function to work on any platform.. would swapping \n\n for PHP_EOL work? nice one Andy.

I wonder if we could mod the function to work on any platform..

However, I had a problem with it since explode("\n\n", $data, 2); does not work on all platforms. Correct is explode("\n\r", $data, 2); Regards, Andy Nice code!

However, I had a problem with it since
explode(“\n\n”, $data, 2);

does not work on all platforms. Correct is
explode(“\n\r”, $data, 2);

Regards,
Andy

Am using it with domdocument and xpath to scrape content from various sources. Quick tip: obvious, but for php novices, you'll need to add something like the following to your code to actually start the process $html=curl('http://www.urltobeparsed.com'); See here for more info: http://www.merchantos.com/makebeta/php/scraping-links-with-php/ Very nice, works like a treat.
