Replacing strings

[Anon]

I want to be able to replace the following string:

  "C:\images\image.gif"

with

 "http://host/image/image.gif" 

I want any one with experience in handling file uploads and blobs to tell me the best way to do this.

$local_str = "C:\images\image.gif";

// Check for the last \ in that string
$pos = strrpos("\", $local_str);

// Copy the right part
$local_file = substr($local_str, $pos + 1);

// Then just append it to your remote path
$remote_path = "http://host/image/";

$remote_filename = $remote_path . $local_file;

// Now $remote_filename has the desired string value

Now all you have to do is just copy it.
