You don't need filesize().

$fp = fopen('address_to_image','r');
while(!feof($fp))
{ $image .= fread($fp,10000); }

Something like that will work...

Subject: [PHP-DB] fetching image by url and storing in mysql


hi there,

i would like to get an image from an web-url and store it into 
mysql-db.

inserting local images or images i upload to the server is no 
problem, but handling urls as images seems quite difficult..

now, for fopen() i need the filesize() of the image, but that command 
does not work on urls...

anyone got an idea how to solve this, perhaps even without writing an 
temporary image to disk? code snippets anyone?

thanks so far,
greetings from germany!

marcus
