[SOLVED] How To Save Downloaded Image

[stevesimo]

Hi, I have a php function which downloads an image in PNG format from a remote server and returns the result as a value called $content.

 

Using the following code I can output the downloaded PNG image to the screen.

 

  header("Content-type: image");
  print($content);

 

My question is how can I store this PNG file on the server as an image file?

 

Many thanks, Steve (Blackpool, UK)

use fwrite and fopen()

$image = fopen("image.png","w");
fwrite($image,$content);
fclose($image);

 

Scott.
