How to load output of a PHP Script into another script variable without file_get_contents()

Question

I really need help of you. What i want is it that i want to load output of a PHP Script into another PHP script variable. And then echo it.

 print "<ul>";
    for($i=0;$i<mysqli_num_rows($govtJobsRslt);$i++){
    $job = mysqli_fetch_array($govtJobsRslt);
    $jobId = $job[0];
    $jobTitle = $job[1];
    $jobEmployer = $job[2];
    $jobVacancies = $job[3];
    $jobPage = $job[4];       
    $query2 = "SELECT employer_shortname, employer_city FROM employer WHERE employer_id               = $jobEmployer";
   $empDtlRslt = mysqli_query($link, $query2);
   if($empDtlRslt){                        
           $empDtls = mysqli_fetch_array($empDtlRslt);
           $empShortName = $empDtls[0];
           $empCity = $empDtls[1];                 
            **$new1 = file_get_contents("http://url/summaryProvider2.phpjobId=".$jobId);**
           print "<li id=\"lst$jobId\" class=\"qs\"><a href=\"/govtjobs/$jobPage\">".$empShortName." ".$empCity."-".$jobTitle."-".$jobVacancies." Posts</a> </li><div id=\"sum$jobId\" class=\"jobSummary\">".$new1."</div>";

I want to replace file_get_contents() method because this is not working on web server becasue it is disabled for security reasons.

Please tell me the other way that how can i do that??? Is it possible somehow using include() method???

Guys please help soon...

But its a SELECT only statement than how is it vulnerable because no input is possible it is for presentation only — vinweb

What is disabled? Is the function file_get_contents() disabled? (unlikely, nasty if so), is allow_url_fopen disabled (more likely)? If that is the case, is the curl extension available? If curl is available, use that. — Michael Berkowski

I removed allow_url_fopen from disable list but the behavior did not change — vinweb

you can use fopen just open it as a regular text file but that is not better than file_get_contents. You can also have your web server treat this file as a non php file, and then it will just spill the contents to whoever requests it so then you can use curl to the local machine to get it.
