Does anyone know if there is a simple way to convince
'file_get_contents' to treat webcal urls (e.g.
webcal://www.calendarlabs.com/templates/ical/US-Holidays.ics ) as
being the same as an http url? (according to Wikipedia, http is
assumed for webcal urls)
I've looked into using 'stream_wrapper_register', but, unless I've
misunderstood it, this would require me to write the whole http access
myself, without being able to just pass it onto the internal http
processing code.
I've done some web searching, looked through the PHP docs and had a
look through the archives here, but not managed to find anything
(sorry if I've missed anything obvious).

$url = str_ireplace('webcal://', 'http://', $url);

Thanks for the suggestion, but I've already tried that - the server
I'm connecting to expects the URL to start with 'webcal://', I'm
trying to find a way to get PHP to treat it as a http connection,
without changing the URL.

Create a stream context and use it to set the Host header to the webcal URL and
pass that to file_get_contents with the HTTP URL.

Reading the other emails makes me ask the question, must you use
file_get_contents? Or could you use cURL?
