How can I find the version of php that is running on a distinct server with distinct domain name? (like www.abc.com) It is not my server, no ftp access for making a php file with this code:
<?php echo PHP_VERSION; ?>

Check PHP Version by Running PHP Code The simplest method to determine the PHP version running on your website is executing a PHP file that contains the following code: <? php echo 'PHP version: ' . phpversion();
php in the Web server document root (installdir/apache2/htdocs/ for Apache or installdir/nginx/html for NGINX). Make sure the Web server is running, open a browser and type http://localhost/phptest.php. You should then see a screen showing detailed information about the PHP version you are using and installed modules.
This works for me:
curl -I http://websitename.com Which shows results like this or similar including the PHP version:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Thu, 13 Feb 2014 03:40:38 GMT Server: Apache X-Powered-By: PHP/5.4.19 P3P: CP="NOI ADM DEV PSAi COM NAV OUR OTRo STP IND DEM" Cache-Control: no-cache Pragma: no-cache Set-Cookie: 7b79f6f1623da03a40d003a755f75b3f=87280696a01afebb062b319cacd3a6a9; path=/ Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 Note that if you receive this message:
HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently You may need to curl the www version of the website instead i.e.:
curl -I http://www.websitename.com I use redbot, a great tool to see the PHP version, but also many other useful infos like headers, encoding, keepalive and many more.
Try it on

I also up vote Neil's answer: curl -I http://websitename.com
