SSI的问题包括PHP file_get_contents（）和https

Question

I have a script that pulls a file's contents and then echos it out like so:

$file_to_read = "http://website.com/" . $file_name;
$text = @file_get_contents($file_to_read);
echo $text;

This is the way I've done it, because the files getting read have SSI includes and once echoed would not work.

Now I need to replicate the code but call the same website with https and it's not working. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to do the same thing, but have it work while calling an https URL or using a local path?

Thanks!

I have had more luck with using cURL as opposed to file_get_contents, here is what I use for my facebook api calls that include an access_token (only available on secure connections):

$curl_handle=curl_init();
curl_setopt($curl_handle,CURLOPT_URL,$file_to_read);
curl_setopt($curl_handle,CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT,2);
curl_setopt($curl_handle,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,true);
curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
$text = curl_exec($curl_handle);
curl_close($curl_handle);
