Errror number 2

[gengar003]

I'm using this code to open a remote file and display its contents.

PHP Code:

<?
$filename = "http://tacorner.com/news/tanewsupdate.txt";
$fd = fopen ($filename, "r");
$contents = fread ($fd,filesize ($filename));//// The thing it doesn't like

fclose ($fd); 
$delimiter = ",";
$splitcontents = explode($delimiter, $contents);
$counter = "";

echo $contents;

foreach ( $splitcontents as $color )
{

$counter = $counter+1;
echo "<b>Split $counter: </b> $color\n<br>";
}

?>

And the file *does* exist.

Now, when I run the script, I get the following error:


Warning: filesize(): Stat failed for http://tacorner.com/news/tanewsupdate.txt (errno=2 - No such file or directory) in /home/tacorne/public_html/news/testing.php on line 6


Any idea why?
