 It identifies itself along these lines:

thank you. now is there a way to modify the above identification, 
say something like HTTP-User-Agent: Netscape 4 (Mozilla etc...


 If that's not going to work out, you may need to use something like cURL.

never heard of cURL ? is it a extension for PHP ?

I haven't really checked, but I suspect the only way to change this would 
be to muck with the PHP source code.

Well, it's an independent library and CLI utility, but there is a nice set 
of PHP calls that link in to it. It has its own section in the manual.

[PHP] getting pages with FILE

2002-05-03 Thread jyrgen

hello all,
i'm using FILE to read a page via HTTP and construct an array of 
HTML lines. After that i modify the page and echo it out.
this all works great. The web server delivers pages depending on
browser types. Now i need to pretend a certain browser. Can this
be done ? What kind of HTTP-request does FILE send to the 
webserver ?
