Hi Folks

Whenever using include() / require() with an absolute URL, eg. include("http://some.site.com/some/file"), I get something like the following prepended to the included file:

Date: Thu, 05 Jun 2003 13:38:27 GMT Content-Type: text/html Accept-Ranges: bytes Last-Modified: Thu, 05 Jun 2003 13:00:20 GMT ETag: "b0d9d6b622bc31:7d6" Content-Length: 12071

This always happens when using 'http://' in the include()/require() statement. However, when running the same code on the command line, the file is included without this 'header' beeing prepended, it only happens when doing so over the web-server.

When using a simple include("/path/to/file") everything seems fine.

I'm running Debian 3.0 stable w/Apache 1.3.26. PHP is 4.3.2 linked against the current Debian dev packages of Apache.

The problem also exists with PHP 4.3 and 4.3.1. I don't
know wether this is also true for older versions.

Any help on this would be appreciated.
Thank You.
