copying a file (pic) from one url to another url

[cheesywan]

Hello,

I've used the "move_uploaded_file" function to copy a local file to my web site, but I can't seem to make a copy from another web site.

any help or possibly a code snippet would really be appreciated

Thanks,

What exactly are you trying to do?

For me it looks like you are trying to read a remote file (an image from another site) and save it on your server.

I would use something like get_file_contents('http://server/image'); and save it using the regular fopen, fwrite functions.

Actually, it's file_get_contents(), not get_file_contents().  You can do:

 

$file = file_get_contents("url");

file_put_contents("x.txt", $file);

 

=P  Replace "url" and "x.txt" with your info.
