PHP: Is there a way to change request address?

For some reason, if I request a file using a url such as this:

http://localhost/proxy.php?url=http://anintranetsite/file.jpg

It works! I can get the file. But if I use,

http://127.0.0.1/proxy.php?url=http://anintranetsite/file.jpg

I cannot get it to work. I am not unnderstanding what is going on... Any thoughts on what could be going wrong?

Thanks

Sounds like your browser has the proxy configured wrong.

Aka "No proxy for" should contain localhost AND 127.0.0.1

sounds like a router/firewall problem. localhost is probably aliased to your machine name rather than 127.0.0.1
