The other settings probably won't matter either, as I can't imagine it would want/need to include() from remote URL's, and probably not likely to need to fopen() remote files, either.

[RESOLVED] http_build_query error – what does it mean?
Hi
I’m having a problem with this bit of code – it is part of a pagination system I have added to my site
$_GET[‘mOffset’] = $memberOffset+$memberPerPage;
$nextPageURI = http_build_query($_GET);
$nextPageLink = $fullURL.$nextPageURI;
the error I am getting is
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: http_build_query() in /homepages/10/d238492251/htdocs/forums/memberlist.php on line 1699
line 1699 is the middle one of the three lines above
[B]
Thing is I tested all this on my backup site which runs on one of my local PCs and everything works fine there
What causes this and more importantly how do I fix it?
