[stew]

hello!

im trying to read the width of an image that is hosts on a completely different website...
so far ive got...

$image = fopen("http://www.jbachellier.eurobell.co.uk/freak01.jpg", "r");
$size = getimagesize("$image");

$width = $size[0];
$height = $size[1];
if($width > 400) {
  do stuff...
} else {
  do other stuff...
}

but get an error at the get image size

Warning: getimagesize(Resource id #2): failed to open stream

anyone got any ideas?

make sure you have the correct path to the file, and that the file does exist...

if (is_file("http://www.jbachellier.eurobell.co.uk/freak01.jpg")
    {
    $image = fopen("http://www.jbachellier.eurobell.co.uk/freak01.jpg", "r"); 
    $size = getimagesize("$image"); 

$width = $size[0]; 
$height = $size[1]; 

if($width > 400)
    { 
    // do stuff... 
    }
else
    { 
    // do other stuff... 
    }
}

I'm fairly certain that getimagesize() will not work with a file pointer.

Try:
$size = getimagesize("http://www.jbachellier.eurobell.co.uk/freak01.jpg");

no that didn't work... i think its because is_file () doesn't work on remote servers

perhaps?!?
