you could leave what the problem / solution was so other people could learn / find the answer if they have a similar problem in the future?
Is there any other function available that can be used instead if CURL? My web host disabled this function, but I need to use it in my application.
@MayurGondaliya: file_get_contents() But get a new host, you can do a lot of cool stuff easily with CURL thats hard / impossible without it. I recommend HostGator.
