Save image using file_get_contents

I am using talkphp logo for this example, hoping Ryan wouldn't mind :D

I din't know i could do this until i did. you can rad an image file and then save it. its like saving images automatically.

PHP Code:


			
$url = 'http://www.talkphp.com/images/talkphp/logo2.gif'; //MAKE SURE http is there



$contents = @file_get_contents($url);

if(!empty($contents))

{

 $file = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/images/saved.gif';//Make sure images directory exists

 $fh  = @fopen($file,'w');

 if($fh)

 {

   fwrite($fh,$contents);

   fclose($fh);

 }

}

and that would save file to your directory. Might not mean anything to you, but its good to know, coz i just used it today in my project. Ofcourse, legal rights should be taken care of.
