Hello There!
I just signed-up so how-about you Seniors welcoming here ? 
I do not understand why my following cURL php fails to fetch a webpage.
<?php
//ERROR REPORTING CODES.
declare(strict_types=1);
ini_set('display_errors', '1');
ini_set('display_startup_errors', '1');
error_reporting(E_ALL);
mysqli_report(MYSQLI_REPORT_ERROR | MYSQLI_REPORT_STRICT);
/*
Download a Webpage via the HTTP GET Protocol using libcurl
*/
function _http ( $target, $referer ) {
//Initialize Handle
$handle = curl_init();
//Define Settings
curl_setopt ( $handle, CURLOPT_HTTPGET, true );
curl_setopt ( $handle, CURLOPT_HEADER, true );
curl_setopt ( $handle, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, "cookie_jar.txt" );
curl_setopt ( $handle, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, "cookies.txt" );
curl_setopt ( $handle, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "web-crawler-tutorial-test" );
curl_setopt ( $handle, CURLOPT_URL, $target );
curl_setopt ( $handle, CURLOPT_REFERER, $referer );
curl_setopt ( $handle, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true );
curl_setopt ( $handle, CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS, 4 );
curl_setopt ( $handle, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true );
//Execute Request
$output = curl_exec ( $handle );
//Close cURL handle
curl_close ( $handle );
//Separate Header and Body
$separator = "\r\n\r\n";
$header = substr( $output, 0, strpos( $output, $separator ) );
$body_start = strlen( $header ) + strlen( $separator );
$body = substr( $output, $body_start, strlen( $output ) - $body_start );
//Parse Headers
$header_array = Array();
foreach ( explode ( "\r\n", $header ) as $i => $line ) {
if($i === 0) {
$header_array['http_code'] = $line;
$status_info = explode( " ", $line );
$header_array['status_info'] = $status_info;
} else {
list ( $key, $value ) = explode ( ': ', $line );
$header_array[$key] = $value;
}
}
//Form Return Structure
$ret = Array("headers" => $header_array, "body" => $body );
return $ret;
}
$page = _http( "https://potentpages.com", "" );
$headers = $page['headers'];
$http_status_code = $headers['http_code'];
$body = $page['body'];
?>What is wrong ? It seems Fire Fox is not interpreting the code.
