I have two web servers with Windows 2000 running on them.
One of them uses as a web server Microsoft IIS and the other one Apache 1.3.19 for Windows. I have a php script which connects to a remote web server and grabs an image. The image is written on a file (with fwrite function) and saved on the local harddisk. If I run the php script on IIS the image is saved correctly. If I run the php script on Apache the image is corrupted (has a larger length in bytes; usually, between 1-50 bytes).

What was the fopen() line you have used?

Thank you Jani!
This is the code:

if($fd_url = fopen("http://www.some_site.com/some_picture.jpg", "r"))
{
	$fd_img = fopen("c:\\some_picture.jpg", "w");
				
	while (!feof($fd_url))
	{
		$buffer = fread($fd_url, 4096);
		fwrite($fd_img, $buffer, strlen(buffer));
	}

	fclose($fd_img);
	fclose($fd_url);
}

RTFM: http://www.php.net/fopen

ie. Just add  the 'b':

fopen("http://www.some_site.com/some_picture.jpg", "rb"
fopen("http://www.some_site.com/some_picture.jpg", "wb"

Note: I just added a note into the docs for fwrite() functions about this.
