Topic awaiting preservation: detect image type

There's a way to detect the image file from an URL
I have the variable

$url = 'http://www.xxx.com/image.gif'

or

$url = 'http://www.xxx.com/image.jpg'

Can I detect if the image is a GIF or a JPG?

Thanks in advance, i don't find anything about that...

A sig should be here.....
But is not.

<?php

$url = 'http://www.xxx.com/image.gif';
$ext = strtolower(substr(strrchr($url, "."), 1));
switch ($ext)
{
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;case "gif":
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;print "Image Type is GIF";
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;break;
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;case "jpg":
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;print "Image Type is JPG";
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;break;
}

?>

Enjoy!

Cool!!
I found this, (given by Weadz):

$tempo ='anyname';

	if(ereg("\.gif$",$url)) {

	$save = '/usr/www/htdocs/artreves/robadas/temp/'.$tempo.'.gif'; 

                         }

	else  {

	$save = '/usr/www/htdocs/artreves/robadas/temp/'.$tempo.'.jpg'; 

	}

Oh!! hehe, you're faster than me posting guys!

I'll try all the scripts to see how they work!

The one that i posted works right!

If I'm not wrong, bitdamaged, to check the first bit, i would do it with the exif_imagetype thing?


mr.maX script worked good too, that one is good because with the case thing, i can detect more than just jpg or gif files.....

I could do the following ini:

if(ereg("\.gif$",$filename)) // Look for .gif extension

		{  	

		$save = '/usr/www/htdocs/artreves/robadas/temp/'.$tempo.'.gif';			

		} 

		elseif(ereg("\.jpe?g",$filename)) // Look for .jpg or .jpeg

		{ 

		$save = '/usr/www/htdocs/artreves/robadas/temp/'.$tempo.'.jpg';

		} 

		else // not a GIF or JPG file 

		{  

			return("Hey asshole! not .exe files here!");

		}

Would work better?
