I'm trying to save image thumbnails from a remote site. The script works fine on most hosts I've tried, but I'm having trouble with one. I know the url is valid, but after about 30 seconds, the script times out. There is no error message, and usually the errors I get from imagecreatefromjpeg() are related to invalid URL locations, which lead to bad resource identifiers, which I don't get here.
Is it possible for a site to block people from accessing an image programatically?
Is there any way around this?
I can view and save the images manually, and my script works perfectly on other sites.
Thanks,
Sean
