Php help needed - Easy $2 - 1 minute job

Im setting up a proxy network and have a template. It uses a config.php file to contain the variables e.g. adsense code etc

I want something like that but where it gets other details from a external file located on simon369.info

I want the footer text to load from simon369.info/footer.php so i can change all the sites footers with only editing one file

This cant interupt with the /config.php thing already on

If you can post here saying what code to put where i want the footer to go and if there is anything i need to place in the footer.php then i will pay you $2 for the first person to do this

Thanks

 

This will display the contents of footer.php:

<?php
echo @file_get_contents("http://simon369.info/footer.php");
?>

Code (markup):

 

IT didnt work

This is what i had, So i wanted it to say copyright 2007 then the site title (that works) then load the contents of the file.

<div id="footer">&copy 2007 <?php echo($title); ?> - <?php
echo @file_get_contents("http://simon369.info/footer.php");
?></div>

Code (markup):

It doesnt load the contents

Thanks

 

You could be getting an error. Remove the @ symbol, and see if it returns any errors or warnings.

 

Nope still didnt do anything

Thanks

 

does

$content=file_get_contents("http://simon369.info/footer.php",FALSE,NULL,0);
echo $content;

PHP:

work?

 

If you have PHP4, this should work, if the above does not:

include("http://simon369.info/footer.php");

Code (markup):

 

Nope that didnt work either im affraid

I have to go bed now anyway cos its late

Will be back tomorrow

 

I suggest you check you are doing it correctly, as:

echo file_get_contents("http://www.simon369.info/footer.php");

PHP:

will work...

 

Try This One

<?include("footer.php");?>

PHP:

 

Check if allow_url_fopen is on, also try:

error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', true);
echo (file_get_contents('http://simon369.info/footer.php')) ? 1 : 0;

PHP:

 

Use Curl if fopen isn't allowed.

 

non of the above work and when i try what krt says this is what i get

Warning: file_get_contents() [function.file-get-contents]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /home/simoninf/public_html/index.inc.php on line 100

Warning: file_get_contents(http://simon369.info/footer.php) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in /home/simoninf/public_html/index.inc.php on line 100
0

Code (markup):

What does that mean

Thansk

 

I think this means you need to go to your php.ini and change "allow_url_include = Off" to "allow_url_include = On"
