title: PHP, need help using cURL as allow_url_fopen is disabled
body: <p>I need some help. I'm very new to cURL. I got a script working that would create a feed from a wordpress blog (with magpie XML parser). I also got an image resize script to resize the images for me. It works locally but because my web hosting has allow_url_fopen() disabled I've been told I need to use cURL but I can't get anything to work.</p>
  
  <p>Here's the code BEFORE I tried to get cURL working:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?php
  
  
  $url = $_GET['imagesrc'];
  
  
  // Set a maximum height and width
  $width = 200;
  $height = 200;
  
  // Content type
  
  
  // Get new dimensions
  list($width_orig, $height_orig) = getimagesize($url);
  
  $ratio_orig = $width_orig/$height_orig;
  
  if ($width/$height &gt; $ratio_orig) {
     $width = $height*$ratio_orig;
  } else {
     $height = $width/$ratio_orig;
  }
  
  // Resample
  $image_p = imagecreatetruecolor($width, $height);
  $image = imagecreatefromjpeg($url);
  imagecopyresampled($image_p, $image, 0, 0, 0, 0, $width, $height, $width_orig, $height_orig);
  
  // Output
  header('Content-Type: image/jpeg');
  return(imagejpeg($image_p, null, 100));
  
  ?&gt;
  </code></pre>
