file grabber problem

[pagedrop]

Hello,

 

I have this code below to grab a given file name into the server.

I would to know and learn how to put a input box for this code, so the user can place any file url and the same file will be copied.

 

thank you

 

<?php

echo "script started\n";

echo "<br>";

$inputfile = fopen("http://www.google.com/homepage.css", "r");

$outputfile = fopen("homepage.css", "w");

echo "opened files\n";

echo "<br>";

$data = '';

while (!feof($inputfile)) {

  $data .= fread($inputfile, 8192);

}

echo "read data\n";

echo "<br>";

fwrite($outputfile, $data);

echo "transfered data\n";

echo "<br>";

fclose ($inputfile);

fclose ($outputfile);

echo "files closed\n";

echo "<br>";

echo "done";

echo "<br>";

?>
