使用命令行从书中运行PHP脚本

Question

I am trying to run this php script that i got from the book webbots, spiders, and screen scrappers.

  $target = "http://www.WebbotsSpidersScreenScrapers.com/hello_world.html";
$file_handle = fopen($target, "r");

# Fetch the file
while(!feof($file_handle))
  echo fgets($file_handle, 4096);
fclose($file_handle);

I am using the command php first.php and all it does is concatenate the file back to me.

Your full script should look like this

<?php  //<- opening tag for PHP

$target = "http://www.WebbotsSpidersScreenScrapers.com/hello_world.html";
$file_handle = fopen($target, "r");

# Fetch the file
while(!feof($file_handle)) {
  echo fgets($file_handle, 4096);
}
fclose($file_handle);
