This is too advanced for me and having spent several hours reading I am
no wiser. Given that I understand cURL and uploading files is possible
- http://us3.php.net/features.file-upload - it should be just a matter
of referencing a .jpg using a URL into a variable and uploading it to
the target server, but from a script rather than a web form. Would
file() work as the documentation seems to refer to text files that are
read line by line. http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.file.php

How about sending the file via SCP? (it would be a much more safer to

SFTP will work nicely though I don't know if there's a native SCP type
function in php. I know there is the pecl library but that's not going
to be available in most places (but again it depends on what the OP's
trying to do and if it's meant to run in a shared or dedicated
environment).

I am trying to:
- check whether an image file exists on a server,

I am using cURL. First step to capture the image from the first
server. When I return this image to the browser I get a lot of
strange characters. So has this captured the image and what do I
use next to upload to the second server?
I was trying to use file_exists and had problems referencing the
file location as "http://wwww.mysite.com/pic.jpg";. But I know I
can also look at using readfile() and file_put_contents(), $fp =
fopen(), fputs(), fpassthru() etc. What is best way?
FTP.
There's no way fopen is going to be able to write to a remote url,
that'd just be such a huge security issue it's not funny.
