WHY IS THIS HAPPENING ?

type 2 here and see

http://erepindia.x10hosting.com/platoon/platoon.php

Well, when I ran it, it took about half a minute, I got the same page, but telling me that "Line 34 of platoon.php, file_get_contents(): Stream failed".

And seeing that it is trying to reference another website (http://api.erepublik.com/v1/feeds/citizens/2), thats the problem.

x10hosting doesn't allow you to get file contents from other sites, unless your using an "href/rel/src" element in an HTML tag.

If you check correctly, the page you want to add doesn't exist: http://api.erepublik.com/v1/feeds/citizens/1
Try finding the page that works, that might resolve the problem.

Woops, didn't read the post completely, my bad!

Anyways, as xadrieth mentionned, file_get_contents streams are blocked. Basically, your best option would be to learn AJAX and JavaScript and do all what the PHP code does in JavaScript.

is there any alternative for that piece of code??

Wrong. Wrong. Wrong.

This page

uses this script:

<?php
 
$stuff = file_get_contents( 'http://api.erepublik.com/v1/feeds/citizens/2' ) ;
echo " $stuff " ;
?>

I am on Chopin.

what is shown is the above post is true it works for my friend on chopin and not on me on starka
Edit:
should i send a support ticket?

Well, some admin should look into this. If the free servers are configured differently from each other, how can people know what is what?

it was working b4 the downtime
now what should i do most of my scripts are based on this and my site iss based on these scripts

You could try

CODE TO CREATE YOUR URL TO CALL

REPLACE CODE LIKE THIS:

$output = file_get_contents( $url );

WITH CODE LIKE THIS:

 $ch = curl_init(); 

 curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url ); 

 curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); 

 $output = curl_exec($ch); 

 curl_close($ch);  

CODE PROCESSING XML in $output

Edit:
this is unfair it works on chopin but not on starka
Edit:
does other servers allow this ie stoli , chopin , lotus

will this be solved if i create a new acc on a different server?
