Hi,

How do I perform an HTTP request inside a controllers function to an HTML file and then save the HTML in a string for further processing. My HTML file contains a JavaScript code which generates the actual HTML. Here's the HTML file:

Code:
&lt;html&gt;

&lt;head&gt;

    &lt;title&gt;Hello&lt;/title&gt;

&lt;/head&gt;

&lt;body&gt;

&lt;/body&gt;

&lt;/html&gt;

Does CI have any built-in helpers to do this??

Thanks

You could use file_get_contents or CURL:
http://us.php.net/file_get_contents

My hoster has disabled both file_get_contents and curl functions. Is there any other way or a hack/workaround perhaps??
