Question

I have this code:

include('./simplehtmldom/simple_html_dom.php');


$url = "http://www.turismovenezia.it/Dove-Alloggiare/1322597142.html";  
$ch = curl_init();  

// set URL and other appropriate options  
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);  
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);  
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);  

// grab URL and pass it to the browser  

$output = curl_exec($ch);  

//close connection
curl_close($ch);

but I’m not getting anything as output..I expected the code of the page ($url).

Any idea?

Never use file_get_contents for a remote file, it is slow, inefficient, CPU intensive. Use Curl or fsocket instead… fsocket being the better of of the two.
