Upload images to a different domain

Question

Let's assume that i have 2 domains running on the same server, www.domain1.com and www.domain2.com.
I will use www.domain1.com for data transfer. basically this domain will form my website.
I would like to use www.domain2.com as my imageserver.

let's say the ftp structure looks like this:
(i hope this structure will come out readable, since i used alt[255] to space it. however, if it doesn't come out readable, is there a way to use emptyspace characters in SO?)

domains
|
+-- domain1.com
|     |
|     +-- public_html
|
+-- domain1.com
      |
      +-- public_html

is there a way for me to upload images from www.domain1.com to www.domain2.com in php?

You can use the file manipulation functions in PHP, assuming that the PHP has access to both domain directories. — Scott Stevens
you mean i just should use something like move_uploaded_file(domain1.com/public_html/tmp, ../../domain2.com/public_html)? — Gabi Barrientos

<pre><code>
$dir = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/../domain2.com/';
$d = dir($dir);
echo "Handle: " . $d->handle . "\n";
echo "Path: " . $d->path . "\n";
while (false !== ($entry = $d->read())) {
   echo $entry."\n";
}
$d->close();
</code>
</pre>

You can try the obove code. When you get the list, you can handle your uploads by


    $dest_dir = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/../domain2.com/YOURSTOREFOLDER/'
    $filename = 'hello_world.jpg';
    move_upload_file($uploadFileName,$dest_dir.$filename);
