Warnings when file_get_content wrong url

I have this code:

<?php
$url = "http://asdsfsfsfsfsdfad.com";
$file = file_get_contents($url);

if(preg_match("/<title>(.+)<\/title>/i",$file,$m))
    print "$m[1]";
else
    print "The page doesn't have a title tag";
?>

It works fine when the url is a proper url, but when I put in nonsense then I get two warning messages:

Warning: file_get_contents() [function.file-get-contents]: php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Navn eller tjeneste ukendt in /var/www/web17/web/administration/custom_pages.php(71) : eval()'d code on line 4
Warning: file_get_contents(http://asdsfsfsfsfsdfad.com) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Navn eller tjeneste u开发者_高级运维kendt in /var/www/web17/web/administration/custom_pages.php(71) : eval()'d code on line 4

Any way to prevent this?

The easiest solution would be to just suppress the error:

echo @file_get_contents("http://asdsfsfsfsfsdfad.com");

However, error suppression is generally considered bad practise because you never know what went wrong, so it is better to have a handler that selectively handles errors, for instance

set_error_handler(function($code, $message) {
    return ($code === E_WARNING && strpos($message, 'php_network_getaddresses'));
});
echo file_get_contents("http://asdsfsfsfsfsdfad.com");

This would suppress any E_WARNINGS with a message containing 'php_network_getaddresses'. Any other Warnings will not be suppressed.

In addition, you dont want Regex to parse HTML, but use an HTML Parser, like one of those given in

• How do you parse and process HTML/XML in PHP?

So you could do it with DOM. Again, either using Error Suppression (bad)

$dom = new DOMDocument;
@$dom->loadHTMLFile("http://asdsfsfsfsfsdfad.com");
$titles = $dom->getElementsByTagName('title');
echo $titles->length ? $dom->nodeValue : 'No Title found';

Or selectively suppressing network errors:

set_error_handler(function($code, $message) {
    return ($code === E_WARNING && strpos($message, 'php_network_getaddresses'));
});

$dom = new DOMDocument;
$dom->loadHTMLFile("http://asdsfsfsfsfsdfad.com");
$titles = $dom->getElementsByTagName('title');
echo $titles->length ? $titles->item(0)->nodeValue  : 'No Title found';

However, this will then result in parsing errors because loadHTMLFile will not return any HTML, so to suppress the parsing errors as well, you'd have to do:

set_error_handler(function($code, $message) {
    return ($code === E_WARNING && strpos($message, 'php_network_getaddresses'));
});
libxml_use_internal_errors(true);
$dom = new DOMDocument;
$dom->loadHTMLFile("http://asdsfsfsfsfsdfad.com");
libxml_clear_errors();
$titles = $dom->getElementsByTagName('title');
echo $titles->length ? $titles->item(0)->nodeValue : 'No Title found';

implode() expects the second parmeter to be an array, thus, check if $file is an array before doing an implode.

$file = is_array($file) ? implode("",$file) : $file;

Or even better, use file_get_contents, then you won't need to use implode:

$url = "http://asdsfsfsfsfsdfad.com";
$file = file_get_contents($url);

---

You should check the $file value for false before joining:

$url = "http://asdsfsfsfsfsdfad.com";
$file = file($url);
if ($file !== false) {
    $file = implode("",$file);
    if(preg_match("/<title>(.+)<\/title>/i",$file,$m)) {
        print "$m[1]";
    } else {
      print "The page doesn't have a title tag";
    }
} else {
    print "wrong url";
}

---

you can check whether $file is array or not ..

if you check it then it will never give you an error..

if(is_array($file) && count($file)>0){
   if(preg_match("/<title>(.+)<\/title>/i",$file,$m))
     print "$m[1]";
   else
     print "The page doesn't have a title tag";

}
else{
   echo "$file is not arrya so it does not go in the fi block.";
}

You don't need to add the quotes around the file contents string. When you use the function file_get_contents, it already returns the results as a string. By adding those double quotes around it, you are basically adding nothing to the string.

You can use curl to check if the url is valid:

<?
function url_exists($strURL) {
    $resURL = curl_init();
    curl_setopt($resURL, CURLOPT_URL, $strURL);
    curl_setopt($resURL, CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, 1);
    curl_setopt($resURL, CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION, 'curlHeaderCallback');
    curl_setopt($resURL, CURLOPT_FAILONERROR, 1);

    curl_exec ($resURL);

    $intReturnCode = curl_getinfo($resURL, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);
    curl_close ($resURL);

    if ($intReturnCode != 200 && $intReturnCode != 302 && $intReturnCode != 304) {
       return false;
    }Else{
        return true ;
    }
}

//Usage Example :
If(url_exists("http://www.weberdev.com/addexample.php3")) {
    Echo"URL Exists";
}Else{
    Echo"URL doesnot exist";
}
?>
