As explained, the input is a single comma-separated string of image paths/URLs and, as noted, the first step is to split that string. A practical, safe flow is: split the CSV into entries, trim blanks, detect URL vs local path, fetch or copy each file into a dedicated uploads folder, validate the file really is an image, sanitize and give it a unique filename, then save and log the result.

Important checks and hardening: prefer cURL for remote downloads (timeouts, follow-redirects, SSL verification). Never trust file extensions alone — validate with getimagesize() or finfo_file(). Restrict allowed image types and maximum size. Sanitize basenames (remove path-traversal characters) and prepend uniqid() to avoid collisions. Keep uploads in a non-executable directory and set safe permissions. Always handle errors per-item (log and continue) rather than aborting the whole batch.

Example outline (split -> fetch/validate -> save):

<?php
$csv = 'http://example.com/img1.jpg, /path/to/local/img2.png';
$target = __DIR__ . '/uploads/';
if (!is_dir($target)) mkdir($target, 0755, true);

$items = array_filter(array_map('trim', explode(',', $csv)));
$allowed = ['jpg','jpeg','png','gif'];

foreach ($items as $item) {
    $isUrl = filter_var($item, FILTER_VALIDATE_URL) !== false;
    if ($isUrl) {
        // download to temp, validate, then move to $target
        // (use cURL with timeouts; check HTTP code; write to temp file)
    } else {
        // check file exists, validate with getimagesize(), then copy to $target
    }
    // sanitize basename, create uniqid() filename, set permissions, log outcome
}
?>

If images actually come from a browser form, use an HTML input type="file" name="images[]" multiple and iterate $_FILES, using move_uploaded_file() for safety. Common failures to investigate: disabled allow_url_fopen (use cURL instead), permission errors on the target folder, invalid image headers, or remote servers blocking requests — check PHP logs and curl_error() output.

Your question is not very clear. To answer the obvious question as to whether or not you can upload each file to a folder, then yes you can. I assume from your (ill-formed) question that you have both/all file names in a single string, but you need to "cut" them apart in order to process them separately?

yes,you are right..i have all image path(url) in a single string with comma..now i need to split and upload each image file.
