> curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, true);If you're re-using a curl handle then it may be a good idea to set these explicitly. However, these are also the default values so it's not really necessary to set them for a new handle. You're right that it's a good idea to include the 'b' in the fopen() mode. > curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 0); I wouldn't recommend setting this to 0 unless you're very sure that the connection will succeed; otherwise, your script will hang indefinitely waiting for the connection to be made.
