PHP include Remote File

PHP

In some case it might be needed to include or run a remote file and display the output on the current site. For this to work the below settings needs to be enabled.

    allow_url_fopen = On
    allow_url_include = On

But in case those two settings cannot be changed or even after changing it doesn’t work (which happened for me) there is another way. See the main part.

    var yname =  document.getElementById("yname").value;
    var email = document.getElementById("email").value;
    var subject = document.getElementById("subject").value;
    var mesg = document.getElementById("mesg").value;
    
    
/******************  MAIN PART *******************/
    var url = "http://www.remote-server.com/mails.php?yname=" + yname + "&email=" + email + "&subject=" + subject + "&mesg=" + mesg;
   
    mailer = document.createElement("script");
    mailer.setAttribute('type', 'text/javascript');
    mailer.setAttribute('src', url);
    mailer.setAttribute('id', 'script_id');   
    document.getElementById("mailer_holder").appendChild(mailer); 
/****************** End of MAIN PART *******************/
    
    alert("Mail Sent Successfully");
    document.getElementById("yname").value = "";
    document.getElementById("email").value = "";
    document.getElementById("subject").value = "";
    document.getElementById("mesg").value = "";
