url uploading

[MikeDXUNL]

I have searched for the past 2 hours, literally for URL photo uploading. and have found... nothing!

 

I have found only Local browsing uploading. PHP.net didn't help, they only talked about what damage not setting ext limits could do.

 

and I searched this forum for 'url upload' and 'upload file url', but to no luck

 

pixel2life was searched, along with hotscripts, which I only looked at about 6 because I got really tired of looking.

 

 

If possible, could anyone steer me in the direction of a URL upload script tutorial??

 

 

Thanks,

Mike

if u mean just them give a URL and it loads the image then its just take a form and then POST back the info and u have the url do what u like with it.

      |______________________________|

file_get_contents() should do the trick.  BUT.  You must verify extensions AND be sure to rename the physical file, but send the original file name in the Content headers of your image downloading/viewing section.
