Remote File download and measure speed
Posted: Sun Jan 08, 2006 11:45 pm
Hello All,
This is what I am trying to do but gave up
I want the user to be able to click on a button or a trigger on http://domainA.com
then DomainA web server would go and download a file (specified file) from http://domainB.com/file.zip
then it will measure the speed of the download (from DomainB to DomainA) and finally report it to the the user.
I have tried fput but got stock there.... I am a little new to these functions as to measuring speed.
I do not want to get the download from DomainA to the user, I want to make it from DomainB to DomainA (servers) as if the user is on dial up then that should be independant.
I greatly appeciate all your help.
