file_get_contents (PHP 4 CVS only) file_get_contents -- Reads entire file into a string Descriptionstring file_get_contents ( string filename [, int use_include_path])
Identical to readfile(), except that
file_get_contents() returns the file in a string.
Note: This function is
binary-safe.
Tip: You can use a URL as a
filename with this function if the fopen wrappers have been enabled.
See fopen() for more details on how to specify
the filename and Appendix I for a list of supported
URL protocols.
See also: fgets(), file(),
fread(), include(),
and readfile().

If you use PHP < 4.3.0, you could try:
$string =
implode("", file($filename));
Not talking about
efficiency here, though.

If you are not using the CVS version of PHP you can use this
functon:
function file_get_contents($filename, $use_include_path =
0) {
$fd = fopen ($filename, "rb", $use_include_path);
$contents = fread($fd, filesize($filename));
fclose($fd);
return
$contents;
}
If you have access to the php.ini file you can also
create a PHP script which will automatically be included in each page
using the auto_prepend_file directive.

Here is my Code how to Copy a file from a website to
local harddisk
without the file_get_contents function.
it is binary-safe, but its not
the fastest way:
function filecopy($urlsrc,$localdst)
{
$fp_urlsrc = /old?u=http%3A%2F%2Ffr.php.net%2Fmanual%2Fen%2Ffopen%28%24urlsrc%2C%26quot%3Br%26quot%3B%29%3B%3Cbr&y=1999>$del_File =
fopen($localdst,"w");
fwrite($del_File,"");
fclose
($del_File);
while (!feof($fp_urlsrc)) {
$fp_localdst =
fopen($localdst,"a");
fwrite ($fp_localdst,
fread($fp_urlsrc, 1));
fclose
($fp_localdst);
}
fclose($fp_urlsrc);
}

My php-installation didn't have file_get_contents so I implemented my own
version. It takes to args, source URL to download from and target local
path to save to... enjoy
function download($url,
$local)
{
$readfile = @fopen($url, "rb");
$writefile
= @fopen($local, "wb");
while
(!feof($readfile))
fwrite($writefile, fread($readfile,
65535));
fclose($readfile);
fclose($writefile);
}

Another thing to note if you use the first roll-your-own version of
file_get_contents() above is that filesize() is cached. If you rewrite a
file that may later be read using this function you should then call
clearstatcache() to ensure the right value is returned by filesize().
