I need to fetch some xml files, which livejournal makes readily available, yay.
I've tried two different ways to open these files...
first curl:
curl_init($url);
then xml parsing with DOM:
$xmlDoc = new DOMDocument();
$xmlDoc->load($url);
in both cases, some of the files I want give me a "failed to open" sort of error. The ones that do not work have one thing in common: underscores. But some of the files that work have underscores too. So I give up.
Examples of files that work, every time... I can open these just fine:

Examples of files that totally do NOT work ever... I get a "not found" error in my script even though I can open them in a browser!
