php curl, download size limit

Hi all
How I can get the page by php curl only first 10 character or only first 10 kb of page I don’t what download all of page.
Dose any one have idea
Thanks

 

Not sure if this will work but if you can access remote files you could use the following

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "remote_filename.txt");
//you might need to uncomment below?
//curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FILE, fopen("destination/to_save/filename.txt"));

//execute the curl by opening the file
$handle = fopen(curl_exec($ch),"w+");
//save the file
$file_string = fread($handle,10);
// CLOSE CURL
curl_close ($ch);
fclose($handle);

PHP:

I just kind of threw this together and have no idea if it will work. It will definitely need some modification to work.

Good luck!

 

does it work?

 

nvm
just used
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RANGE,"1-2000"); //where 1-2000 range of downloaded bytes
