如何让php打开一个页面？

Question

I am attempting to open a specified page automatically upon loading a PHP page, but not by means of redirecting, is file_get_contents suitable for this? Also I have tried curl with the following, however I do not see any responses:

curl_setopt($ch=curl_init(), CURLOPT_URL, "http://www.google.com");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

many thanks in advance

cURL is perfect for that situation. If you just want to to display the page, you don't need to set curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); as the default behaviour is to display the result.

Check for errors:

if ($response === false) {
    echo curl_error($ch);
}
