I was writing a php code to parse images from a particular url . At the begining I used http://www.google.com as a testing url.

When I tested the php code from my local machine (http://localhost) it took time to get data from a remote url (google.com) . So I decided to check this code with my locally testing web page. So i write the code as bellow :

file: index.php

<?php

$content = file_get_contents(“http://localhost/”);

// parse($content);

?>

This is the biggest mistake I made that day. Did you find the mistake ?? Else try this code with your local machine. You can see your big blunder . Not only you, your system also will get hang ..

Because this is the longest recursive call you can call with your web server !!!
