    Image Download

    Hey well i need help i want to create a simple image downloading script
    where you insert the image URL and it will download it and place it on
    your server, and rename the image to some number. Any one have any
    ideas on how i can do this?

      Hi,

      Go to www.php.net and look up:
      1) How to post and receive a formelement (using $_POST probably)
      2) have a look at a function called fopen.
      (It also handles http-requests if php is configured to do so.)
      PHP: fopen - Manual
      http://nl3.php.net/manual/en/function.fopen.php
      Opens file or URL


      3) Safe the content on your server somewhere under a name.
      read more here:
      PHP: fwrite - Manual
      http://nl3.php.net/manual/en/function.fwrite.php
      Binary-safe file write


      Good luck

      Regards,
      Erwin Moller

              "simple" and "place it on the server" don't really mix if you want the
              script to be save (you could end up with malicious content on your
              server...)

              Without the security, your script could be like this though (PHP > 4.3.0):

              $url = "http://some/url/of/image.jpg";
              preg_match('"(\ .[^/]+)$"', $url, $match);
              $extension = (isset($match[1])) ? $match[1] : '';
              $int = 'your_number';
              $handle = fopen($url, 'r',);
              copy($handle, '/path/on/your/server/'.$int.$extensi on);

              Grtz,

                              He is pointing to a comma that either shouldn't be there or should be
                              followed by a boolean indicating to use the include_path. Reading in a
                              fixed-width font would have clarified that.

                              hey! too by the way :-)
