php : get file contents and store file in particular folder

Question

I am getting file contents from the file_get_contents() function in php and I want to store that file in a particular folder. How would I do that?

Answer 1

Use file_put_contents()

$image = file_get_contents('http://www.affiliatewindow.com/logos/1961/logo.gif');
file_put_contents('./myDir/myFile.gif', $image);
