Here is my error report:

fsockopen() works fine with remote URLs and even "localhost"; but, not with our
own URL.

I'd use "localhost" but, I need to attach some GET arguments and I can't figure
out a way to do it. e.g.,

$str= file_get_contents(localhost?page=processqueue&login=Pmin&password=xxxxx)
