PhpDig.net - Bug fix for pdftohtml

It's documented that pdstohtml doesn't work with phpdig and PHP 4.2.x.

That due to a bug in the PHP function file($file) when a remote url is passed to it.

Here is a patch that allow pdftohtml work with PHP 4.2.x.
Find the line

PHP Code:


		
			
$file_content = @file($uri);

in robot_function.php and replace it with

PHP Code:


		
			
//$file_content = @file($uri);

// Bug fix -- 2004/02/25 By VinSoft --

$remoto = fopen($uri,'rb');

while(!feof($remoto)) {

        $file_content[]=fread($remoto,4096);

}

Now my pdftohtml (and xls2csv) works fine!

Bye for now
