The first argument of read should be a file handle. You give a string as first argument.

    But at this point in read if I use the file handle it will have no value because the image file is in $img</cope> and not in the <code>$filename variable. How would you do it?

      I've no idea what is in $img, other than it's a string. Perhaps all you want is: 
        $url = new URI::URL($urls);
  $req = new HTTP::Request('GET', $url, $hdrs);
  $ua = new LWP::UserAgent;
  
  $resp = $ua->request($req);

  if ($resp->is_success) {
      open(IMAGE, ">../../img/$filename") or die "$!";
      binmode IMAGE;
      print IMAGE $resp->content;
  }

      But then you may want to use LWP::Simple instead.

        That I know works, I tried as well but I would like to read this image file before using the code inside of the while loop. Just in case the image been uplaoded is too big. The $img has the image itself from the urls.
