Hi. how to know the url file size, without downloading it? lets say i have the image: [a href=\"http://www.phpfreaks.com/images/logo_blank.gif\" target=\"_blank\"]http://www.phpfreaks.com/images/logo_blank.gif[/a] how can i know its size (kb\mb\...) without downloading the picture to my computer\host??? thanks PS: filesize function dont work with url.

markduce - WTF oO YAY i dont it :) thanks everyone :) [code] $file_type=substr($file,strrpos($file,'.')+1); $file_name=pathinfo($file); $file_name=$file_name['basename']; $file_name=substr($file_name,0,strrpos($file_name,'.')); [/code]

well, thanks but most of you are wrong =\ i managed to do what i want with the function COPY. Yes :) now there are only two problems: 1. how to check the file size? 2. how to get the name of the file? because i get: [a href=\"http://domain.com/file123.ext\" target=\"_blank\"]http://domain.com/file123.ext[/a] (the extention i also managed to get so i only have: [a href=\"http://domain.com/file123\" target=\"_blank\"]http://domain.com/file123[/a] ). how is it possible to get only the name of the file? (file123)? thanks.

If you want to move files from one host to another, use something like [a href=\"http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html\" target=\"_blank\"]PuTTY[/a] as the Telnet/SSH client. If - as imageshack does - you want to upload files from your computer (or your site users want to), then use a simple image uploader such as [a href=\"http://fundisom.com/phparadise/php/image_handling/image_upload_and_resize\" target=\"_blank\"]LixlPixel's excellent free script[/a]. [/quote] well, you right. you didnt understand me :) i am BUILDING an uploading system. If i want to upload a file from my computer to the host, i use: move_uploaded_file and IT WORKS! But what i need to do if i want to ReHost the image? what function to use? lets say, i have: image.com/logo.jpg and i want to upload to the server, directly, not downloading it to my computer and the uploading.... imageshack have this option (url upload). i hope now you understand me :)

HI i am trying to build a uploading system. What shuold i do for the reUpload image? {one host to another, not from comp to my host} Like: [a href=\"http://www.imageshack.us/\" target=\"_blank\"]http://www.imageshack.us/[/a] What function to use? thanks :)
