php file_get_contents and &amp;
<p>I'm trying to use php's file_get_content('a url');</p>

<p>The thing is if the url has '&amp;' in it, for example</p>

<p><code>file_get_contents('http://www.google.com/?var1=1&amp;var2=2')</code> </p>

<p>it automatically make a requests to <code>www.google.com/?var1=1&amp;amp&lt;no space here&gt;;var2=2</code> </p>

<p>How do I prevent that from happening?</p>
