DELETE request with file_get_contents

file_get_contents method can do a GET or POST request. I am wondering if it is possible to do a DELETE request with this method. I tried like below but it doesn't seem to do a DELETE Request. I am also not getting any error or exception. Is this possible?

$postdata = http_build_query($param);
$opts = array('http' =>
        array(
            'method'  => 'DELETE',
            'header'  => 'Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
            'content' => $postdata
        )
    );
$context  = stream_context_create($opts);
$result = file_get_contents($url, false, $context);

$result = file_get_contents( 'http://example.com/submit.php', false, stream_context_create(array( 'http' => array( 'method' => 'DELETE' ) )) );
