Getting header response code - php

Question

This is part of a PHP script I am putting together. Basically a domain ($domain1) is defined in a form and a different message is displayed, based on the response code from the server. However, I am having issues getting it to work. The 3 digit response code is all I am interested in.
Here is what I have so far:
function get_http_response_code($domain1) {
$headers = get_headers($domain1);
return substr($headers[0], 9, 3);
foreach ($get_http_response_code as $gethead) {
if ($gethead == 200) {
echo "OKAY!";
} else {
echo "Nokay!";
}
}
}

Answer 1

$domain1 = 'http://google.com';
function get_http_response_code($domain1) {
$headers = get_headers($domain1);
return substr($headers[0], 9, 3);
}
$get_http_response_code = get_http_response_code($domain1);
if ( $get_http_response_code == 200 ) {
echo "OKAY!";
} else {
echo "Nokay!";
}

If you have PHP 5.4.0+ you can use the http_response_code() function. Example:
var_dump(http_response_code()); // int(200)

Here is my solution for people who need send email when server down:
$url = 'http://www.example.com';
while(true) {
$strHeader = get_headers($url)[0];
$statusCode = substr($strHeader, 9, 3 );
if($statusCode != 200 ) {
echo 'Server down.';
// Send email
}
else {
echo 'oK';
}
sleep(30);
}

You directly returned so function wont execute further foreach condition which you written. Its always better to maintain two functions.
function get_http_response_code($domain1) {
$headers = get_headers($domain1);
return substr($headers[0], 9, 3); //**Here you should not return**
foreach ($get_http_response_code as $gethead) {
if ($gethead == 200) {
echo "OKAY!";
} else {
echo "Nokay!";
}
}
}
