If I understand you want to be able to get a value from a script on another server.
Well I would suggest a really each way would be to do have the calling server call a script on the supplying server using include(); which is supported but please see this page regarding URL fopen wrappers: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.include.php Requests for includes and on the supplying server simply output the value like: <?php $answer = 'no'; ?> If you do it this way it will be simply included and be available as a variable instantly.
