External Link Usage !!

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. using wordpress. and copy entire posts with the original images links.
2. when my theme use timthumb.php to generate resized copies.
3. it stops because we have "http" external links.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
i want to check $src -the link- and redirecting it to external links
resizer function else use the local.

I may have a fix for you, but first let me describe what this will/won't work 
on:

Your script will not work cross-domain (meaning you can't link to an image that 
is on
a different server than the script).

However, if you're trying to do something like this: 
http://yoursite.com/timthumb.php?src=http://www.yoursite.com/image.png

Then apply this:

// sort out image source
$src = get_request("src", "");

// remove the http://....com and replace with a relative "/" to root directory
$src = preg_replace('@(https?://([-\w\.]+)+(:\d+)?(/([\w/_\.]*?)?)?)@', '/', 
$src);

please test the latest version of the script. Previously this was not possible 
but it
has now been allowed for certain domains (flickr.com etc)

I've tried the beta version, but still won't work. I'm using Google App Engine 
as
CDN, and I've added the domain to the beta file, but it doesn't work.
