PHP 判断远程图片文件是否存在

我推荐使用CURL方法

CURL 方法

<?php
$url2 = 'http://www.nowamagic.net/test.jpg';

$ch = curl_init(); 
$timeout = 10; 
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url2); 
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1); 
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); 
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, $timeout); 

$contents = curl_exec($ch);
//echo $contents;
if (preg_match("/404/", $contents)){
	echo '文件不存在';
}
?>

curl_exec()执行完之后如果文件不存在，会返回如下信息：

HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
