Presented by Sharon Levy
The primary focus of this presentation is HTTP, whether as a protocol, a wrapper, an extension or a class. I am going to look at HTTP in all these ways.
I'll be focusing on how to use PHP to make the GET request especially under trying circumstances such as when allow_url_fopen is off or a web host refuses
to make CURL available. I'll have code examples where parsing may occur but that'll be incidental as my focus is web-based retrieval more than parsing.
