Hi,

What im trying to do is save a remote file, for example a image off another website to the local hard drive of the server using ASP.

For example id like a smilie bank kinda thing on my forum where people can add smilies to it. So they could enter the path of a smilie on the web they have found, and the ASP pulls it across and saves it in a directory on the servers drive where all the smilies are kept.

Will that work?

file upload - search for FSO component

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.

actually FSO would be backwards....

You'd wanna use something like XMLHttp to get the remote image and there is a ".Save" method of it that can save it to your server
