I have encountered a bump on a project I am currently working on. The project requires a script to retrieve the content of an external page with variables for further processing, and I can't seem to get it to work even when using FSockOpen. This may, or should, be a failure on my part, but I looked the issue up in Google and found that others have had the same problem. Among other things, I found some interesting discussion forum threads, but the answers (if you can call it that) was rather vague and speculative and lead me no closer to a solution.

I know for a fact that what I am seeking to do is possible, some way or the other, but this is the first time I have had to retrieve content from external pages with variables. Any input would be highly appreciated.

Danke schön.
