I have a CSV data feed situation where the website's ecommerce does not accept html in the image cells. I need to open 65,000 image url's; 500 at a time and copy each image into a folder. I have been playing with different programs to grab these images. I have my own server access and use FTP to interface with the program. The vendor cannot provide the images in bulk, so using FTP to suck them off their server is not an option.

Thanks, I started playing with PHP but kept getting bugs. Ended up using a Unix/Linux program called 'wget'. I was able to place the wget code on my server and grab each image as a separate line item and place them in a folder. I will download the http://www.httrack.com/ software which looks similar...

Regards,

Stu
