Well I changed the code to this expecting a true or false response (1 or 0)
$url=$row[url];
echo "Old URL = ".$url."<br>";
$fp = fopen("$url","r");
echo "fp = ".$fp."<br>"; //Debug line to see what $fp is returning
switch ($fp){
case 1:
echo "Valid URL<br>";
break;
case 0:
echo "URL IS NOT VALID<br>";
$url="http://";
break;
}
echo "New URL = ".$url."<br>";
I get this as a responce on a URL I know is valid (I tested it in my
browser)
Old URL = http://www.warrenbowley.com
Warning: fopen("http://www.warrenbowley.com","r") - Bad file descriptor in
/var/www2/html/members/datacopy.php on line 73
fp =
URL IS NOT VALID
New URL = http://
