Check if the function exists

if(!function_exists("fsockopen")) {   echo "Function Exists";}

i think Xisto already have fsockopen function.you no need to reenable it.but if you visit your control panel, then look into phpinfo for examining it. the rows like this appear:disable_functions dl, system, popen, pclose, proc_open, proc_nice, proc_terminate, proc_get_status, proc_close, pfsockopen, leak, apache_child_terminate, posix_kill, posix_mkfifo, posix_setpgid, posix_setsid, posix_six_setuid.then i dont know what's the different between pfsockopen and fsockopen., (I already try what zainal wrote, i didnt show function exist in this Xisto

! means notHow To Check If Fsockopen Function Is Enabled?

the code is backwards.  the ! means not.  so if it exists then nothing will be printed to the screen and if it does not exist the

Function Exists will be printed.  that tricked me for several minutes.

<?phpIf(function_exists("fsockopen")){   echo 'Function Exists';}Else{   echo 'function does not exist';}?>
