copy image from remote server to hard drive
Posted: Tue Mar 29, 2011 4:23 pm
I am trying to use the code below or any code if you have different ideas, to copy an image from a remote server and save the image either on my hard drive, or, on a server that I have access to that has a folder with permissions set at 777 so I should be able to write/save to that server. The code below runs without error messages but doesn't do anything.
Code: Select all
<?php
function save_image($inPath,$outPath)
{ //Download images from remote server
$in= fopen($inPath, "rb");
$out= fopen($outPath, "wb");
while ($chunk = fread($in,8192))
{
fwrite($out, $chunk, 8192);
}
fclose($in);
fclose($out); }
save_image('http://altatechsolutions.com/test/images/bad-display220x174.jpg','c:\data\image.jpg');
?>
