hm... actually this is found but any way but any way since it is found
might as well check the uri..

fputs($found, "GET $uri HTTP/1.0\r\nHost: $host\r\n\r\n");

$status = fgets($found)
list(proto, $result, $result_text) = split($status);
if ($result != 200 ) {
  echo "url is bad, give me a better one";
} else{
  echo "thank you for for the url";
}

and of course 
fclose($found); //we dont want the rest of the page.


hmm.. I think I did to much.. just that other peoples code frighten me
sometimes....

btw, the above code is copyrighted so dont use it. 

cheers,
