php - Getting an 'html' type instead of 'image' from the browser -

i'm using curl fetch image file our server. after checking browser's developer tools, says returned type 'html' instead of 'image'.

here's response:

/f/gc.php?f=http://www.norbert.com/get/image/bts-005-00.jpg 200 text/html   484.42 kb   1.68 s  <img> 

here's curl script:

$ch = curl_init(); $strurl = $strfile; curl_setopt($ch, curlopt_url, $strurl); curl_setopt($ch, curlopt_useragent, "mozillaxyz/1.0"); curl_setopt($ch, curlopt_header, 0); curl_setopt($ch, curlopt_returntransfer, true); curl_setopt($ch, curlopt_timeout, 60); $output = curl_exec($ch); curl_close($ch); return $output; 

any additional specific code add in curl script?

thanks!

your php script doing curl , returning output without specific header of image.

so, default, browser retrieve data html content.

try add more specific header before returning output.

try

header('content-type: image/jpg'); 

to specify browser type of content script sending.

if want user able download file, can add header:

header('content-disposition: attachment; filename="' . $filename . '";'); 

if sending binary content, add:

header("content-transfer-encoding: binary");
