here code being executed:

<?php class website {     function seturl($param) {         $url = $param;     }     function exec() {         $ch = curl_init();         curl_setopt( $ch, curlopt_returntransfer, true);         curl_setopt( $ch, curlopt_url, $url);         $site = curl_exec($ch);         $this->info();         return $site;     }     function close() {         curl_close($ch);     }     function info() {         if(!curl_error($ch)) {             $info = curl_getinfo($ch);             echo $info;         } else {             $error = curl_error($ch);             echo $error;         }     } } $test = new website; $test -> seturl('www.google.com'); $content = $test -> exec(); $test ->close(); echo $content; 

what bothers me fact /etc/php5/cli/php.ini returns nothing when enter /curl in vim, tried on web should php.ini no luck.

you referring variables in class methods don't exist. define $ch in exec, , close in close, not storing reference $ch @ class level. add $ch property class , change references $ch $this->ch. same true $url.

class website {   private $ch;   private $url;    function seturl($param) {     $this->url = $param;   }   function exec() {     $this->ch = curl_init();     curl_setopt( $this->ch, curlopt_returntransfer, true);     curl_setopt( $this->ch, curlopt_url, $this->url);     $site = curl_exec($this->ch);     $this->info();     return $site;   }   function close() {     curl_close($this->ch);   }   function info() {     if(!curl_error($this->ch)) {         $info = curl_getinfo($this->ch);         echo $info;     } else {         $error = curl_error($this->ch);         echo $error;     }   } }
