I thought about file_exists... but url is by definition a remote file and
file_exists does not work on remote files.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.file-exists.php
What I don't understand is why the die statement never executes.
If you try to fopen a file that doesn't exist shouldn't fopen return false?
