File_exists doesn't seem to work with URLs that point to another domain.  
What to use? 
 
$x = fopen(http://www.stammis.com/getstart.php); 
if file_exists($x) .... 
..... 
????

What version of PHP are you using. With anything less than PHP5 you cannot 
use file_exists on anything other than the file system PHP is local to. 
 
All versions of PHP. Explicitly using file:// since PHP 4.3.0 
 
/path/to/file.ext 
 
relative/path/to/file.ext 
 
fileInCwd.ext 
 
C:/path/to/winfile.ext 
 
C:\path\to\winfile.ext 
 
\\smbserver\share\path\to\winfile.ext 
 
file:///path/to/file.ext 
 
file:// is the default wrapper used with PHP and represents the local 
filesystem. When a relative path is specified (a path which does not begin 
with /, \, \\, or a windows drive letter) the path provided will be applied 
against the current working directory. In many cases this is the directory 
in which the script resides unless it has been changed. Using the CLI sapi, 
this defaults to the directory from which the script was called.
