Grab image from the web

[sfilipowicz]

Hi Everyone,

How would I grab (with CF) an image from the web.

For example I have an URL

http://www.domain.com/images/image.jpg

I would like to grab this and save it to my own server.

Any ideas how I could or must do this?

Thanks!

Use CFHTTP to grab the image in binary format and CFFILE to save it locally. I'm assuming you have the rights to grab the images of course ;-)

Ha yep, got it working, pretty easy.

Thanks!

<cfhttp url="

http://www.company.com/images/30901.jpg"

getasbinary="yes"></cfhttp>

<cffile action = "write" file = "C:\Temp\30901.jpg" output = "#cfhttp.filecontent#">
