Please help me guys. i'm also used curl_init(); it is replying Bad Request.
Guys please help me with this.
Thanks in advance
fopen may not be allowed. "Bad Request" usually means you did not provide all/correct data. Hard to help you without knowing the API, nor seeing your code.
Hi,
If you want to pass a url via GET, which means to add that url in the link address, try with: file_get_contents('http://domain/page.php?name='. rawurlencode($the_url_to_pass)); , or with cUrl, but adding that url in the address encoding with rawurlencode().
fopen("http://api.studentmug.com/bulksms/sms.php?Username=<something>&Password=<something>", "r");
Try using the local address to the file instead eg:
fopen("C://webhosting/studentmug.com/api/bulksms/sms.php?Username={$username}&Password={$password}", "r");
If that doesnt work you could combine it with what Marplo said and use file_get_contents() - i use file_get_contents with GET variables so i know that one will translate a web address
But is there any reason you cant use require('bulksms/sms.php'); ?
Then you have all the variables you had access to in the calling page eg.
index.php
<?php
$user = 'test';
$password = '1234';
require('bulksms/sms.php');
var_dump($success);
?>
bulksms/sms.php
<?php
if($password == '1234'){
$success = true;
}else{
$success = false;
}
?>
