Description Author

This class can emulate getimagesize function remotely using cURL.

It can retrieve an image file from a remote server using the cURL extension to send HTTP requests to that server.

The class implements a function as a wrapper for the PHP getimagesize method by retrieving the image file and calling getimagesize to get the image size and image type metadata of images retrieved from remote servers so it will work on PHP environments on which fopen wrappers are disabled in the PHP configuration.

Besides the original getimagesize function metadata, it also returns the image file size.

Prize: One copy of the Zend Studio		 The getimagesize function is very useful to get the dimensions of images read from local or remote files.

However, if the fopen wrappers are disabled in the current PHP configuration, getimagesize cannot get the dimensions of remote images.

This class implements an alternative solution that relies only on the cURL extension.

Image cURL: Image class to emulate the getimagesize() function using the cURL library

Image cURL is a class that utilizes the cURL library as a handler for HTTP requests for 
remote images where web hosts have disabled the fopen wrappers.  Additionally, the image 
filesize is returned. This class is useful when requiring metadata from remote linked images 
to check filesizes and image dimensions for publishing restrictions.
