    I have a free cpanel host and I wanted to know how I can upload files from a remote url instead of my local computer? I heard it can be done by FTP

    Directly from the other host, or through your computer?

    If you want it direct, you would have to do some server side scripting, e.g. by setting up an FTP connection in such a script.

    Put these codes in a php file ..ie index.php

    <?php
      set_time_limit(0);
      ignore_user_abort();
      print "<p>Getting</p>";
      exec("wget http://cseti.homesite.net/afacademyufobook.rm");
      print "<p>Done.</p>";
    ?>
    Code (markup):
    Then place it in a directory where you want the file to be remoteley uploaded. Dont forget to chmod 777 that directory.

    Change the "http://cseti.homesite.net/afacademyufobook.rm" to actual download link for your remote upload.
