File uploading to another server WITHOUT FTP

[Sno]

ok this is my problemo I got 2 hosts
host 1 hosts the files like zips
host 2 main site PHP
Now the main site host 2 does not have FTP functions is it possable to get it over to host 1 any other way?
P.S.: host 1 has PHP

Why not just use the PHP form upload function? I.e. upload it through the browser?

Bandwidth problems nad space too

Is it possible to run PHP on host 2 too?

[Sno]

why would I be asking this question if If my main site has the php problem

Sorry
If you can you make a http-connection from host 2 to host 1 and the files are accessible via webserver, you can copy them from 2 to 1. Here's a sample:

<?
$ExtPic = fopen("http://www.host1.com/any.gif","rb");
$IntPic = "out.gif";

$NewPic = fopen(IntPic,'wb');
while (!feof($ExtPic)) {
  fwrite($NewPic,fread($ExtPic,1024));
}
fclose($ExtPic);
fclose($NewPic);
?>

so do you mean site 1 downloads the file from site 2. now how would I put that info into a form? and allow a user to upload it. acutally DAMN I stated the wrong question.

I have a form with feilds I want an attachment feild 1 field to upload a file to another server the rest of the feilds keep data on this server ok. Now I know I can use a regular upload script on server 1 and have the Form have 2 actions, 1 for the file and another for the rest of the fields, that would work but is there another way to tranfer the file from the client to the other host by going through a form.

Idea with one script running on server 1:
Upload file to server 1
Save it there
fopen("http://server2/copy2me.php?file=abc&ext=gif", "r") a script on server 2 which copies the uploaded files to server 2
Delete uploaded file an server 1, if "return code" of copy2me.php is ok.

ok I did something like that the only problem now is that there is a @ in the login like this
