Copying files from a webpage.

[Anon]

Is there a way to copy a file from another server, like http://www.someplace.com/stuff.txt, to my server?

as long as you have the right permissions, you could open a remote file and then basically copy the contents to a file. (permissions being the main thing).

$URL = "http://www.somewhere.com/abc.txt";
fopen($URL);

then

fread(), etc.
