copy an image file from a PHP url 1

[sunbase]

I am extracting data from an XML file (with full consent) and I use the file to identify and copy files. From other similar feeds I simply identify the URL of the image then use copy ($from,$to) but in this case I have isolated the image file to

http://media.pafilia.cn/api/propert...1.jpg&logo=&h=768&w=1024&type=24&recordType=2

which works great as an IMG SRC but prevents me doing a straightforward copy as I would normally. I need to get to the heart of the PHP to get the image to copy but I dont know where to start. Ahy suggestions welcome but keep it simple please

Hi

You mean this not works for you ?

[teal]<?php[/teal]
[COLOR=orange]copy[/color][teal]([/teal][i][green]'[URL unfurl="true"]http://media.pafilia.cn/api/property/img.php?development=10&property=1241&img=1.jpg&logo=&h=768&w=1024&type=24&recordType=2'[/URL][/green][/i][teal],[/teal] [i][green]'1.jpg'[/green][/i][teal]);[/teal]

Then I am afraid the problem is elsewhere in your system, as the above works fine to me.

does it copy a nice picture of a building (which displays nicely as an IMG SRC) or a image not available graphic?

Hi

Building ? Oh, indeed, there is one in the background. ( I was distracted by the pool... )

Same for me. Executing Feherkes code 1:1 I get a 1.jpg in the same directory as the php script with 85KB length, showing that same picture, as if using the URI in the browser.

What could stop copy from working is no write permission in the destination folder. Also ensure you specify a file name, not only a path. File name only is possible, as said that copies to the script location and works, as I have write permission set here in localhost.

So the only thing you should be concerned about in your production environment make sure you specify a destination having a path you can write to and having a file name.

Is your $to variable qualifying for these conditions?
If it does, I can only assume pafilia.cn is limiting requests per IP.

Bye, Olaf.
