[pmwiki-devel] Files as URLs or local file system names?

[Petko Yotov]

After you call DownloadUrl() the global variable $FmtV['$PathUpload'] 
contains the relative filesystem path to the file.

So, something like this:

# $fname is the part after Attach: in Attach:Group.Page/file.gpx
$url = DownloadUrl($pagename, $fname);
global $FmtV;
$filepath = $FmtV['$PathUpload'];
$object = simplexml_load_file($filepath);
