Brilliant! Now why do all these other scripts I've found make it look so hard?? http://wiki.dreamhost.com/index.php/CURL Take a look at the last script on that site. I suppose it's because of all the error-handling. That last "downloader class" looks promising, through I'm not sure how to pass an URL into it to get and save to a special directory on my server. I like your example better.
