Question

I am trying to implement a php client that sends an HTTP GET to the server which sends back a JSON object with the return information. I know how to decode the JSON once my php script has received it, but how would I go about actually getting it?

---

EDIT: Note – I send the server an HTTP GET, and it generates and sends back a JSON file. It is not a file sitting on the server.

Check out file_get_contents

$json = file_get_contents('http://somesite.com/getjson.php');
