[Bug 965371] Re: HTTPS requests fail on sites which immediately close the connection if TLS 1.1 negotiation is attempted, on Ubuntu 12.04

[kylea]

I have replaced my calls to

$content = file_get_contents($url);

with a curl call...

    $curl = curl_init($url);

    if (is_resource($curl) === true)
    {
        curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_FAILONERROR, true);
        curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
        curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
        curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_SSLVERSION, 3);
        curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, true);
        curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 2);

        if (isset($post) === true)
        {
            curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POST, true);
            curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, (is_array($post) === true) ? 
http_build_query($post, '', '&') : $post);
        }

            $content = curl_exec($curl);

        curl_close($curl);
    }

Key point here is ---->   curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_SSLVERSION, 3);

This seems to work on http and https sites.
