Clook does not allow php includes???

[purple]

I moved some sites to clook and when I try to use paid on results content units via php includes I get this message

Warning: include() [function.include]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in

I understand clook have disabled includes for security.

I just wonder if any other affiliates use clook, and use php includes. I would be interested how you get around it

Not familiar with the POR content units, but are they just sending HTML to the browser, rather than containing PHP code that needs to be executed?

If they are just HTML, try the following which may be allowed:

<?php 
$file_contents = file_get_contents('http://url.com/'); 

// display file 
echo $file_contents; 
?>

Yup

Just tried that with a POR content unit on Clook and it worked.

Cheers

Just a thought - were you calling the include using the full URL or a relative path? Sounds like an error I had before as I was calling the include from the full URL.

Thanks guys for this, I will update our Content Units to also offer file_get_contents() in future for the PHP option as well as includes() for people who hosts are blocking includes() on a URL for security.
