Upload file froma URL

[treeleaf20]

All,

Is it possible to do a file upload from another site? So for something quick like this:

$source = $_FILES['fupload']['tmp_name'];      
$target = $path_to_image_directory . $filename;           
move_uploaded_file($source, $target);  

Is there anyway to make the $source something like:

$source = "http://www.site.com/pictures?id=12345";      
$target = $path_to_image_directory . $filename;           
move_uploaded_file($source, $target);  

Any ideas?

 

Thanks!

Per the php manual:

As long as allow_url_fopen is enabled in php.ini, you can use HTTP and FTP URLs with most of the functions that take a filename as a parameter.
