I have a web site where I use cookies to store logins, and also session
cookies for users logged in.
Is there a way for me to use file_get_contents() to pull content which are
"behind" the login?
In other words, I want to use my own log-in cookie and somehow send it with
the file_get_contents request to get the content.
Can I somehow do this? Or are there other ways?
Anders.
I dont know what you mean with "behind the Login", but if you want to
request extern content with authentication, use CURL extension to do
this. Other way is, use Frames on your site, to load extern content.

I'm doing just that now.. ;-)
However, I have 3 parameters set in the cookie, so the question is how to
include them all three...
Should I repeat the "Cookie: foo=bar\r\n" three times, like:
"Cookie: foo=bar\r\n" .
"Cookie: bar=else\r\n" .
"Cookie: time=number\r\n"
Or would I, in some way, add all three on one "Cookie:" line? If so, how do I
delimit them? I haven't been doing much with http headers, so all of this is
pure experimenting for me..

If I recall correctly, you have to have them encoded, plus use a semi-colon to separate them. So
something like this.
"Cookie: foo=bar; bar=else; time=number\r\n";
Check out the RFC for it. http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2109/rfc2109.txt
Look at section 5.1, example #7. That should answer your question(s) about
cookies.

Thanks!
Actually, I found that just at the same time as your reply went into the
mailbox.. ;-)
I'll do a test to see if I can get it right..
Thanks a lot to you all!

Version/source control and change management are huge issues in many
companies. They will require extensive testing to be done before that code
ever makes it production. Bringing down production webservers or databases
can impact other areas of the business. I work with some of the biggest
retailers in the world and it would kill the company to have affected/bring
down a production system. If that happens, and it has, we run day and night
with all sorts of folks from the client to analyze, correct and re-roll
code if needed.
Believe me, no one rolls code without a plan to back it out, in cases its
bad code, and never without approval from other stakeholders in the business
like the webserver people, database people, directors etc.

Port 119?
Try your ISP mail account directly. Maybe gmail is blocking you.
Can you access and other newsgroups?
You'd be better off working with the Thunderbird forum for this problem. It's
not a php problem.

yes on port 119.
i do not want to use my professional email address (or SMTP settings) to
send message on newsgroups.
for MS, Borland, eclipse and other newsgroups servers, it works perfectly
without setting a SMTP server.
i do not use gmail to send message via thunderbird... i use gmail only for
mailing list as thunderbird does not work :-(

it seems that news.php.net server is checking if address is real or a
fake...
at least it is checking if user's address is registered into their
mailing list or if there are some keywords from filter like: fake,
noemail, nospam,...
now it works :-)

mukesh,
im happy to respond, but please keep the conversation on the list, so that
others may benefit by having it available in the archives.
i have a few questions as well; is the query being executed on the provider
system (that is the one you intend to send the http request to)? also, are
you writing and deploying code to both of these systems, or just on the
consumer (the one you intend to execute the curl request from)?
either way, i can say that programmatic http interfaces are usually built to
deliver services, such as an api for an online application. these
interfaces offer methods much like those in php (or many other languages),
they take a well defined set of argumets, and have a well defined return
value.
in your case, i would expect the provider to expose some url that would
essentially represent the query you intend to execute. it would then expect
the consumer to provide an id during the request, so that it can use that in
the query. then it would return the result, nearly verbatim from the
database.
so, if the provider supported the method as http GET, you might see
something like this, which you would execute via curl,
http://myrestapi.com/getAllFromTable?id=56
then, the provider would grab the id right out of $_GET (if it were also
written in php).
