Does x10hosting block connections to port 2052 when using file_get_contents?

You pretty much have ports 80 and 443 (client) to work with apart from local files, local database connections and local mail. Everything else is closed and will not be opened.

So this line of code will not work?

PHP:
file_get_contents('http://example.com:2052/');

It shouldn't (which is probably why you're asking). Opening non-standard ports presents too much opportunity for abuse on the Free Hosting service. A lot of things do, so the service is locked down pretty tight. Most of the restrictions are either not in place or are user-configurable on the paid services, but since there are no real consequences other than suspension of a free service on Free Hosting, there's a real need to keep things buttoned up very tight in order to keep the servers off of abuse lists.

Is there anyway to create an exception? As I'm only trying to get JSON data from http://roblox.plus:2052/inventory?username=Roblox
