CURL?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi, I am not a programmer and am having issues with timthumb not showing my 
thumbs on my WordPress site. The hosting comp say that CURL would solve the 
issue If I replace the following code.

Have had a look at timbthumb.php and cant find where to replace? Does anyone 
have an idea or any other ideas!? 

Thanks,

JM

Replace: 
if(($hand=fopen($url,"r"))==false)
{$errmsg="Not a Valid Web site " . $url; break; }

with:

$ch = curl_init();
$timeout = 5; // set to zero for no timeout
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, $timeout);
if( ! curl_exec($ch)){ $errmsg="Not a Valid Web site " . $url;
break;
}
curl_close($ch);

Hi - this code does not exist in TimThumb so I think you will need to go back 
to your host and ask them for more info. For reference, TimThumb already uses 
curl for accessing external data.
