Posting image to php script

Hi,

Could anyone please help me with the following please?

If I have a jpg image on disk, it is easy to post it to a php script and save it server-side as follows:

C#

System.Net.WebClient Client = new System.Net.WebClient();

Client.Headers.Add("Content-Type", "binary/octet-stream");

byte[] result = Client.UploadFile("http://mywebsite.com/UploadImage.php", "POST", "PicData.jpg");

szResult = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(result, 0, result.Length);

and the PHP is as follows:

PHP

<?php

$uploaddir = "uploads/";

$szResult = "";

if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"]))
{
    $uploadfile = $uploaddir.basename($_FILES["file"]["name"]);

    if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], $uploadfile))
    {
        $szResult = "Uuploaded successfully.";
    }
    else
    {
        $szResult = "Move to upload folder failed.";
    }
}

else
{
    $szResult = "Upload failed.";
}

echo $szResult;

?>

This all works great.

But, what if I have the jpg file in memory as a byte[] called jpegAsByteArray.

Well then I could do:

File.WriteAllBytes("PicData.jpg", jpegAsByteArray);

And call the above C# code and all will work fine.

But it seams wasteful to save it out to disk just to then send the bytes to the server using UploadFile.

How can I acheive the saving of the file on the server WITHOUT also saving it on the client side?

Thanks,

Mitch.
