I know the url is good, cause I can go on to this domain and look at all my
files.
I guess I should explain a little further...
This server is a game server for Counter-Strike. I'm trying to read a file
on there called "mapcycle.txt".
This server is a secure server, so I would need to use a username and
password to get on. I
I've tried a bunch of different things, and now I find that it has a problem
connecting to secure servers.
DO you know of a different way to connect to a secure server anhd get
information other than the way I have been trying?
This is what I'm usuing right now:
<?php
$prefix = "ftp://";;
$username = "myUsername";
$password = "**********";
$url = "server.username.gameserver.com/";
$filename = "test.txt";
$result = readfile($prefix . $username . ":" . $password . "@" . $url .
$filename);
print ($result);
?>
// OUTPUT
0
if I use anythign other than the ftp:// for a prefix (like http. or https) I
get an error.
Cheers.
