How to upload files on my web sever from a dropbox shared link
Hi,
The title says it all! If Dropbox users share some folder with a link, how can I download its contents to my web server?
Regards

Thank you Dave for so quick answer.
A followup question. I am looking at this php example (http://bgallz.org/scripts/upload-multiple-files-url/index.php) and it looks like it needs a direct url to files. I did some googling but I was not able to find an example how I could download all the files from the dropbox link. Maybe my keywords are wrong, cold you please guide me in the right direction?

The modification Dave suggested will cause Dropbox shared links to return the file content itself (instead of a preview page), but note that for your code to work with that it will need to follow redirects. You can find the full information here:
