How to use HTTP proxies in PHP code? Print

We support PHP code as long as the CURL library is enabled.

1. Create a file called test.php:

<?php
$proxy = '154.30.208.20:21264';  // <-- Replace 154.30.208.20:21264 with your PROXYIP:PROXYPORT
$url = 'https://www.google.com';
$content = getUrlContents($url, $proxy);
print $content;

function getUrlContents($url, $proxy = NULL, $post_data = NULL, $timeout = 30, $userpass = NULL) {
$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
if ($post_data !== NULL) {
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POST, TRUE);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post_data);
}
if ($proxy != NULL) {
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_PROXY, $proxy);
}
if ($userpass != NULL) {
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_USERPWD, $userpass);
}
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, FALSE);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, $timeout);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS, 5);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, FALSE);
$contents = curl_exec($curl);
curl_close($curl);
return $contents;
}
?>

2. Upload and navigate to test.php

-- If it works, you should see the contents of the specified $url

-- If you get an access denied page, ensure your server's IP is added as an authorized IP in our Control panel

-- If you see CURL errors, contact your web host about CURL support
