Thanks, everyone, for responding.  Apparently I was not clear enough about 
what I am trying to do.  I have a PHP script that reads a lot of stuff 
from a database and creates a PDF (using FPDF) which is then displayed in 
a browser.  Among the items that need to be included in the PDF are images 
of the home pages of various other websites.  Which home pages are to be 
included vary from time to time, and the URLs of the ones that we want are 
in the database.   I want to be able to capture those home pages as 
separate jpgs, put them in the IFS, then use the image method in FPDF to 
include them in the PDF that I create.
Also - and forgive me, I guess I should know this - what is the GD 
library, to which several people referred?

Hi all - I'm looking for a way for a PHP script to dynamically generate an 
image - maybe as a jpg - for a given url.  Anybody know how to do this?
