hi,
i wanted to accomplish these task:

1. from that webservice get a certain set of strings from the header
2. next, generate the image.

and these 2 steps will be done at the same time.

to get the header value:
$ch = curl_init();
$timeout = 0;
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $xmyurl);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1);

ob_start();
curl_exec($ch);
$s=ob_get_contents();

now from the same url i want also to generate the image on the file.
if just to create the image:

$ch = curl_init();
$timeout = 0;
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $xmyurl);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, $timeout);
// Getting binary data
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, 1);

$image = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

now...how to combine both functions?
