There are no quotes on that URL... I'd be surprised if this doesn't
error out, but maybe you just need E_ALL to see the E_NOTICE you've
been ignoring.
At any rate, you need quotes, whether you realize it or not.

$x, at this point, is either FALSE because fopen() failed, or an open
file handle.
file_exists() expects the path to a file name (a string).
Perhaps you meant:
file_exists("http://www.example.com";);
http://php.net/file_exists specifically links to the kinds of
stream-wrappers that are and aren't supported. Did you read that?
