The code works perfectly. If it’s not working for you it’s probably due to restrictions on your server regarding curl or a firewall if you’re running it locally. It successfully runs on my web-server once every hour. What exactly is your setup?
 
I am using localhost, firewall is off. I don't know what config options I should check.

But here is where your script fails:
After I use curl_getinfo($ch) just before the curl_close($ch)
I get this response:
http://codepad.org/kS5sH82x

As you can see, 'http_code' => int 0 and content_type is empty. Looks like curl fails.

Do you have any ideas pwdguy? Can you post your config.

EDIT: Maybe we need cookie?
