Yes it does. I have successfully retrieved various pages setting the URL in
the curl_init function. Also, the URL is in quotes in the source PHP file
(which I copied and pasted -- so don't know why the quotes are missing
here).

The documentation for curl_init()
(http://www.zend.com/manual/function.curl-init.php) says one can place the
URL in the function call OR use curl_setopt(). Don't know why this would be
the cause of the problem I am experiencing.
