Also, make sure you don't have safe_mode or open_basedir restricting the files php can see, although I'm reasonably sure the fact that it's an URL should nullify that. Also, make sure you have allow_url_fopen turned on.

What I am trying to do is to match a file name from a db to the file in the folder of images.... Which that part is working I can match them and display them, but it keeps telling me they aren't there ...right before it displays...
