Retrieving graphic

[Anon]

I need to be able to "download" a file sitting on a foreign http or ftp server, and place it on my own server. Any idea how to go about this?

<?

open remote file via http

if (!$fp=fopen("http://somewhere/file","r"))
{
die("error");
}
while(!feof($fp))
{
$buffer.=fread($fp,4096);
}
fclose($fp);

save file

if (!$fp=fopen("local_file","w"))
{
die("error");
}
fwrite($fp,$buffer);
fclose($fp);
?>
