You will see issues with anything that uses the URL, is this the case?

$bbcxmlfilename = "http://www.bbc.co.uk/syndication/feeds/news/ukfs_news/uk/rss091.xml";
$bbc_handle = fopen ($bbcxmlfilename, "r");
$bbc_news = fread ($bbc_handle, 1000000);
fclose ($bbc_handle);
$tutvxmlfilename = "/home/********/public_html/maintenance/bbcnews.xml";
$tutv_handle = fopen($tutvxmlfilename, "w+"); 
fwrite($tutv_handle, $bbc_news);
fclose($tutv_handle); 

Do you mean if I'm doing something like above?

If so why is this and is there a way round it?

Kind Regards,

Neil

You will need to modify php to allow URL wrapping.
For some reason it's disabled.

It's not fopen it's fread.

Even though they say it was a bug in 4.3 up, I have been doing it that way since before 4.23. Whatever, if they want it to be a recent bug fix then that's the way it is. You'll have to relearn the fread function.
