[PHP] saving a jpeg via HTTP From: Jeff Bearer (jbearer <email protected>)
Date: 06/15/02

What is the best way using only PHP to grab a image file off a website a
d save it locally? I know I can use wget and this would be a piece of
cake, but in this case I don't want to rely on external programs.

I'm trying to read it with fsockopen and writing it with fopen to the
file but the file is no good when it's saved, I saw that it saved the
http headers in there so I cut those out but still, the image wan't
viewable.

I was using fsockopen instead of file because I want to use the timeout
feature of fsockopen.

any help is appriciated.
