So, I've found this code somewhere on the net (don't remember) and I'm trying to embed it into my site, just in case some of the visitors would need to use it. It creates short URLs (from 4 services) of a particular address.
What I don't understand, and I hope someone could help me, is: why the code works when I test it locally, on my Windows+Xampp computer, but not on the server. The server is a centos 5, apache 2.23, php 5.1. I have suhosin installed, could this restrict the script, somehow!? I'm really lost, don't know what to try. I've chmoded the file in all the possible ways, I've enabled the allow_url_fopen, but still nothing. It doesn't extract/display the results.
Any help and suggestion would be much apreciated.
Thank you!
BTW, the address I'm testing it is http://atat.ro/utile/short-url/
The code:
<?php
function bitly($url) {
$username = 'username'; // your bitly account
$api = 'api key'; // your bitly password
return getContent("http://api.bit.ly/v3/shorten?format=txt&longUrl=$url&login=$username&apiKey=$api");
}
function tinyurl($url) {
return getContent("http://tinyurl.com/api-create.php?url=$url");
}
function google($url) {
$data = getContent("http://ggl-shortener.appspot.com/?url=$url");
$json = json_decode($data);
return $json->short_url;
}
function isgd($url) {
return getContent("http://is.gd/api.php?longurl=$url");
}
/**
* Helper function for getting remote content
*
* Using cURL or file_get_contents
*/
function getContent($url) {
$content = '';
// use cURL
if (function_exists('curl_init')) {
$ch = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
$content = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
}
// use file_get_contents
elseif (ini_get('allow_url_fopen')) {
$content = file_get_contents($url);
}
return $content;
}
if (!empty($_GET['url'])) {
$url = rawurlencode($_GET['url']);
$result = array();
$result['bitly'] = bitly($url);
$result['tinyurl'] = tinyurl($url);
$result['google'] = google($url);
$result['isgd'] = isgd($url);
echo json_encode($result);
exit();
}
?>
