No, not at my own site http://gimpster.com/. The SourceForge site
doesn't work because of the firewall at SF: one cannot connect to the
outside world from within SF.
Try making a PHP file with just
<?php
include('http://cnn.com/');
?>
and see if the page loads with the text from CNN (the images will
probably not work because all the relative paths will point to your
server). If it doens't work, then the so-called fopen wrappers
isn't engaged in your installation of PHP.
You can try with the alternative fsockopen() function call in
PhpWeather. Just set the fetch_method property to 'fsockopen' in the
Configuration builder. This should take care of things if the file()
function is blocked but fsockopen() isn't.
