Need php script to download a file on a remote server and save locally
- by bigLarry
Trying to download a file on a remote server and save it to a local subdirectory.
The following code seems to work for small files, < 1MB, but larger files just time out and don't even begin to download.
<?php
$source = "http://someurl.com/afile.zip";
$destination = "/asubfolder/afile.zip";
$data = file_get_contents($source);
$file = fopen($destination, "w+");
fputs($file, $data);
fclose($file);
?>
Any suggestions on how to download larger files without interruption?
