$data = file_get_contents($url);

    $imgpart2 = explode('"',$imgpart1[1]);

Answer 2

You will use to simplehtmldom. It is very useful to you. you can get the data and images.

Answer 3

I would suggest that you make an http request to the page then you make a regular expression on the response to get the src attribute vale of img tag.

Answer 4

Get the page with file_get_contents($url) then you can parse the content and download the images and store it at your server:

$url = 'http://example.com/image.php';
$img = '/my/folder/flower.gif';
file_put_contents($img, file_get_contents($url));

See this related Question.

Update: To get the image you could use SimpleXMLElement:

$obj = new SimpleXMLElement($htmlCode);
$url = $obj->body->img->src;

Answer 5

If you mean that you want to download a JPG/PNG/etc image from a URL then this PHP will do it:

file_put_contents('image',file_get_contents('http://www.benjiegillam.com/files/img/eye-150.jpg'));

If you mean that you want to take a screenshot of a remote web page then have a look at PhantomJS - see a previous answer of mine here: get webpage print screen, php/unix
