Browser does not render phpinfo()

  • 772

I have a php file at http://lohray.com/info1.php that is just -

<?php
    phpinfo();
?>

The page does not render on my browsers (I have tried chrome and firefox), however, wget fetches all the HTML. What might be going wrong? My apache / php are running on an EC2 instance.

Using the developer tools, I can see that I have received a 200 header with X-Powered-By:PHP/5.3.10.

php apache-2.2 amazon-ec2 phpinfo

    Okay! I figured out the problem. Apparently my university (Texas Tech University, Lubbock) network administrators tried to detect incoming phpinfo() output and blocked it! When I disconnect from WiFi and use LTE connection to access the site, I see the complete HTML and it renders fine.

    Also, I tried to see the page from a remote proxy called http://www.surf-anon.com/ and it renders fine :-)

    Thank you for the comments. It did give me a few tips.

    The length to which some people go on the name of security! Disgusting!
