Take the data below, save it to a filename "test.php". Put it in the directory your webserver serves up pages from. Then using your browser go to http://localhost/test.php
You should see a page printed out or an error if there is a problem accessing NationStates. If you see nothing check your webserver and php configuration on your machine.
<html>
<body>
<?php
$filestuff= file_get_contents("http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/page=display_nation/nation=Myrth");
if($filestuff == FALSE){
printf("Bad kitty, the server must be all farked up. No data for the nation Myrth (He's probably deated again)");
exit;
}
else
printf("%s", $filestuff);
?>
</body>
</html>
