    if($url = filter_var($url, FILTER_VALIDATE_URL))
    {
        $ch = curl_init($url);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);

        $result = curl_exec($ch);
        curl_close($ch);

        return $result;
    }
}

Then to use it:

print getURL($_GET['URL']);
