I was able to successfully make a very simple http proxy - turns out the php documentation has the code for this =] - but now I need a way to display images. I figured the best way would be to download the images to a temporary folder, then parse the html to point to the images on my server instead. The problem is that I do not know how to download the images.
$imgdata = file_get_contents("http://somedomain.com/someimage.jpg");
but this assumes that your php setup has the allow_url_fopen ini setting set to true/1, see here for more info:
http://nl2.php.net/manual/en/ref.filesystem.php#ini.allow-url-fopen
if not then the only other way _I_ can think of, using PHP, is using the cURL extension - which maynot be available either :-S
Also if anyone has a link to a parsing script it would save a good amount of time.
regexps is the way to go, I did a quick google and found this post: http://forums.devshed.com/t173149/s.html&highlight=parse+image
there is a little code snippet there which might be a starting point for you.
here is an untested regexp which goes a little further, it assumes that
the img tags have the src attr properly delimited and specifically delimited with doublequotes.
|<img [^>]*src="([^"]*)"[^>]*>|i
hope that helps you on your way.
(hey list-guys! look no rtfm'ing in sight!)
Thanks for any help.
