PHP Reading currency quotes when "allow_url_fopen=0" - php

Question

I need a fresh EURUSD quote to show my product prices in a website.
I'm trying to read the quote from Yahoo finance with the following code:
$eurUsd = 1.3700; // Default value
$yahooUrl = 'http://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?f=l1&s=EURUSD=X';
$handle = fopen($yahooUrl, 'r');
if ($handle) {
$result = fgetcsv($handle);
fclose($handle);
$eurUsd = $result[0];
}
This code works fine in my testing environment but not in my website since I have "allow_url_fopen=0". I do not want to change it for a security reason.
The request I'm using returns a string like:
1.3715
Do you know how I can read the string in other way?
Do you know an alternative way to access the EURUSD quote?
EDIT
Thanks to Epik's code I tried to use curl, but without success with Yahoo.
Finally I rid off Yahoo and succeed with Rate Exchange JSON/JSONP APIs
A working solution:
$url = 'http://rate-exchange.appspot.com/currency?from=EUR&to=USD';
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$result = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
$eurUsd = json_decode($result)->{'rate'};

Answer 1

$ch = curl_init();
$url = 'http://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?f=l1&s=EURUSD=X';
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,$url);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$result = curl_exec($ch);
