should this Hide Copy Code

'https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/550?api_key=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' &language=es-MX&page=1

be more like this Hide Copy Code

'https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/550?api_key=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx&language=es-MX&page=1'

BTW : Please DO NOT display your API keys here - I have removed them and replaced with x's

Solution 1

At a guess, your quote is in the wrong place:

PHP

$new = file_get_contents ('https://...1b40f' &language=es-MX&page=1);
                                           ^

Either you need a comma between the two parameters, or more likely the quote should be at the end of the complete string:

PHP

$new = file_get_contents ('https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/550?api_key=3b5be2c605681b40f&language=es-MX&page=1');
