call a php method remotely from localhost

[sixeleven]

hi
how i can call a php method remotely from localhost.
this method is simple ,with no entrance value or return type.

i just need to call it .

[Anyango]

it doesn't take anything from the calling script ?
simply put that one method in a new file lets say method.php

then simply load that method.php file from your calling script.

file_get_contents("method.php") // you can use any other function

unless i misunderstood.

GET http://www.example.com/file.php
wget http://www.example.com/file.php --output-document=/dev/null

Those are two methods I've used in the past
