    foreach ($smsno as $mono) {
        $baseurl         = "http://api.xxxxxxxxxxxx.com";
        $sql_q           = "select firstname,lastname from tbl_newsletter where phone='" . $mono . "'";
        $resultcount     = mysql_query($sql_q);
        $row_total_count = mysql_fetch_array($resultcount);
        $first_name      = $row_total_count['firstname'];
        $last_name       = $row_total_count['lastname'];
        if ($_POST['sel_name_sms'] == 'FirstName') {
            $setname = $first_name;
        } else {
            $setname = $last_name;
        }
        $smsBodyText = $_POST['sal_sms'] . ' ' . $setname . '\n';
        $text        = urlencode($smsBodyText . $_POST['msg_body']);
        $to          = $mono;
        $url         = "$baseurl/http/auth?user=$user&password=$password&api_id=$api_id";
        // do auth call
        $ret         = file($url);

  • maybe try php_admin_flag instead of php_admin_value php.net/manual/en/configuration.changes.php Commented May 7, 2012 at 16:58
  • i use php_admin_flag but till give error Commented May 7, 2012 at 17:02
  • May be it's listed in the disable_functions at php.ini Commented May 7, 2012 at 17:05

    If curl is installed, you can use that without allow_url_fopen. On an unrelated note there's actually no good reason to enable allow_url_include in this example. allow_url_include is pretty much always a bad idea. Commented May 7, 2012 at 17:07
  • Oh, on closer examination of the docs: php_admin_* cannot be used in htaccess. That's why your changes to htaccess did nothing. Try php_flag allow_url_fopen on Commented May 7, 2012 at 17:09

This error is telling you that allow_url_fopen is turned off on your server. It IS possible to config a server to ignore user defined php.ini files they place in their web root. Since they went through this trouble, they probably blocked you from alternative hacks (such as in your htaccess file) too.

allow_url_fopen is disabled by your host for SECURITY reasons! It should be, and should remain, disabled. So stop trying to turn it on. They don't want people running who knows what, getting hacked, and putting the other people on the server at risk.

The only way to get around this is to get a new host, or get a VPS or dedicated server where you have root access.

The alternative to allow_url_fopen would be cURL. You can do the same thing with curl.

cURL Example: http://php.net/manual/en/curl.examples-basic.php
