If you get any response other than 200, you won't have valid data.

The code is looking up the response which is put in to $httprequest->code. If this is 200, it means the data has been sent/received fine and you can continue to process it.

$http_result->code always return 0 I dont know why this is happening. I checked the url, which is fine. I also tried other urls but again getting 0 instead of 200.
