无法将远程文件下载到服务器

Question

The remote file is an attachment, and i can get the headers but i cant get the file or the content of it.

 <?php
    error_reporting(E_ALL);

    //not working, with rb too
    //file_put_contents("natives.html", stream_get_contents(fopen("http://www.dev-c.com/nativedb/reference.html", 'r')));

    //same with rb too
    //file_put_contents("natives.html", fopen("http://www.dev-c.com/nativedb/reference.html", 'r'));

    //same
    //echo file_get_contents("http://www.dev-c.com/nativedb/reference.html");

    //same
    /*$url = 'http://www.dev-c.com/nativedb/reference.html';
    $curl = curl_init();
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, false);
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, true);

    $data = curl_exec($curl);

    curl_close($curl);

    echo $data;*/

    //same
    $url = 'http://www.dev-c.com/nativedb/reference.html';
    $file = basename($url);

    $fp = fopen($file, 'w');

    $ch = curl_init($url);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FILE, $fp);

    $data = curl_exec($ch);

    curl_close($ch);
    fclose($fp);
?>

So if i use any of those codes, the output is nothing, and the created file on my webserver is empty. The file: http://www.dev-c.com/nativedb/reference.html

Thankyou for the help, but the problem was with the encoding. I had to send the header "Accept-Encoding: gzip" and then gzdecode the output.

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);

$url = 'http://www.dev-c.com/nativedb/reference.html';
$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
"Host: www.dev-c.com",
"Accept-Encoding: gzip"
));

$data = curl_exec($curl);

curl_close($curl);

echo gzdecode($data);
?>
