You could read it progressively using fopen(), fread() et al.
Probably. This would mean only a small amount of data is read by yours
erver at once. Eg:
$rp = fopen('http:www.example.com/title.png',
'r');
$wp = fopen('mylocalfile', 'w');
while ($block = fread($rp, 8192)) { // 8k block size
fwrite($wp, $block);
}
fclose($rp);
fclose($wp);
From memory. Something like that. Fopen() modes may need tweaking.
