The other two posted solutions will only work if allow_url_fopen has been enabled, which it likely hasn't.

http://www.php.net/manual/en/filesystem.configuration.php#ini.allow-url-fopen

Lots of hosts and PHP builds won't have it enabled for various reasons.

You can either change it in your php.ini or use a CURL request, which would really be the better way about it, ASSUMING CURL is enabled on your PHP install.

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://www.madisonb2b.co.uk/stockenquiry.aspx?id=B8FxKDnJ%2bIdaPT1Nw5wo4r87qHuHcCQIPZzeUE%2fI36LIFOM%2bayBi2RSXHzIJS5Hj97JNSyYL80Q%3d&code=<CODE GOES HERE LADIES>');
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1) ;
$contents = curl_exec ($ch);
curl_close ($ch);

echo $contents;

That should work... probably. It'll get you close enough anyway. Haha.

The problem is that it is not just text that is returned. There is HTML there as well (view source). You need to pull the first line out of the file that is returned as well. For example:

$contents = file_get_contents("http://www.madisonb2b.co.uk/stockenquiry.aspx?id=B8FxKDnJ%2bIdaPT1Nw5wo4r87qHuHcCQIPZzeUE%2fI36LIFOM%2bayBi2RSXHzIJS5Hj97JNSyYL80Q%3d&code={$products_model}", NULL, NULL, 0, 3);

echo $contents;

try using 

$value=file_get_contents('http://www.madisonb2b.co.uk/stockenquiry.aspx?id=B8FxKDnJ%2bIdaPT1Nw5wo4r87qHuHcCQIPZzeUE%2fI36LIFOM%2bayBi2RSXHzIJS5Hj97JNSyYL80Q%3d&code=<code>');

echo $value;

you can also consider using "PHP Curl"
