Hello all;
i am trying to make a little server stat signiture. currently i am trying to get the info from my server using php (obviously i have never done) now i started my little game server and ran WPE PRO on it, it showe that when it receives the command:
Code:
../status.
it sends the server stats. my question is that how might one implement this in php?
so far i have this: (i do not know if i am on the right track.)

Code:

<?php

$handle = fsockopen('192.168.1.2', 3558, $erno, $errstr, 15);
if (!$handle) {
  //if connection fails exit and tell us what went wrong.
  die("Connect failed:its all your falut!!!! jerk! $errstr\n");
}
else {
  $message = "../whatmap.\n";
  //read the first responds the server gives us (usually the version string)


  //send our data to the game server
  
  
  
  fwrite($handle, "$message");
$responses = fgets($handle, 20);
  /*
   until there is no more output to read from the smtp server keep storing all the output
   in the $responses variable. Once there's nothing else to read show us all the output
   and exit
  */
while (!feof($handle)) {
     $responses .= fgets($handle, 20);
}

  echo "$responses";

  fclose($handle);
}
?>
this code is from a tutorial modified by me (some what)
this code just returns an empty page. i do not even know that i am on the right track.

i would greatly appreciate any help at all.
