    hi,
    i wanted to accomplish these task:

    1. from that webservice get a certain set of strings from the header
    2. next, generate the image.


    and these 2 steps will be done at the same time.


    to get the header value:
    $ch = curl_init();
    $timeout = 0;
    curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $xmyurl);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1);


    ob_start();
    curl_exec($ch);
    $s=ob_get_contents();


    now from the same url i want also to generate the image on the file.
    if just to create the image:


    $ch = curl_init();
    $timeout = 0;
    curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $xmyurl);
    curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, $timeout);
    // Getting binary data
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, 1);


    $image = curl_exec($ch);
    curl_close($ch);


    now...how to combine both functions?
