How to print(other php page's output)?

[typingcat@gmail.com]

My application checks for updates by accessing a php page on my
website. Like the following;

http://myserver.com/oldchecker/check.php?version=1.0

Now I have created a new checking page like the following;

http://myserver.com/newchecker/check.php?ver=1.0&name=user

Because there still are users who are using old versions, I need to
keep the old checker but I would like to use the new checker's result
in the old checker. I mean, I want to do something like

if ...oldchecker/checker.php?ver sion=1.0 is requested,
------------
WebRequest req=WebRequest. Create("..../newchecker/checker.php?" +
"ver=" + Request["version"] +
"&name=UNKNOWN" );
WebResponse=req .GetResponse();
StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(Re sponse.GetRespo nseStream());
String Output=sr.ReadT oEnd();
Response.Write( Output);
--------

I'm more familiar with C# so I wrote it in C#, but I guess you have
figured out what I'm trying to do.

oldchecker/check.php:

<?php

$scripturl = "http://example.com/newchecker/check.php";

header("Locatio n:
".$scripturl."? ver=".$_GET["version"]."&name=UNKNOWN ");

?>

Thank you Kim Andre Akero,
but I guess that is only good when the page is viewed by a web browser?

My application doesn't lauch a web browser for the checker page, but
just connect to the web, and download the web page string, and shows it
in a message box. Isn't there any other way to do this?

Hopefully, your PHP installation is configured with URL fopen wrappers,
making this method applicable:

oldchecker/check.php:
<?php

$scripturl = "http://example.com/newchecker/check.php";

include($script url."?ver=".$_G ET["version"]."&name=UNKNOWN ");

?>
