ti ringrazio per l'aiuto, la modifica che mi hai scritto, sicuramente funziona, ma lo script mi restituisce un errore che non riesce a collegarsi all'host. Scuramente l'errore sta nel secondo file php che viene incluso dentro script.php. Per cui riepilogando i file utilizzati sono i seguneti:

form.html
codice:
<form name="form_url" method="post" action="script.php">     
<input type="text" name="url" /> 
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Invia" /> 
</form>
script.php
Codice PHP:
<?php
    
    
require('html_to_pdf.inc.php');
    
$url $_POST["url"];
    
$htmltopdf = new HTML_TO_PDF();
    
    
//$htmltopdf->useURL(HKC_USE_EASYW);  // default HKC_USE_ABC other HKC_USE_EASYW
    
$htmltopdf->saveFile("abc.pdf");
    
$htmltopdf->downloadFile("abc.pdf");
    
//$result = $htmltopdf->convertHTML("[b]MY TEST[/b]");
    
$result $htmltopdf->convertURL($url);
    if(
$result==false)
        echo 
$htmltopdf->error();

probabilmente non riesce a connettersi agli host scritti nel codice?

Grazie
