Get cart details in Magento

You can get the cart details with the following code

<?php
$cart = Mage::getModel('checkout/cart')->getQuote(); //to get cart detail
foreach ($cart->getAllItems() as $item) {
   echo  $productId = $item->getProduct()->getId(); // product id in cart
   echo $productPrice = $item->getProduct()->getPrice(); // product price in cart
$product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($productId); // load product to get all details of product
//load the categories of this product
$categoryCollection = $product->getCategoryCollection();
$catIds = $product->getCategoryIds(); // to get all category ids of products in cart
$catCollection = Mage::getResourceModel('catalog/category_collection')  // to get all all details of categories of products in cart
                     //->addAttributeToSelect('name')
                     //->addAttributeToSelect('url')
                     ->addAttributeToSelect('*')
                     ->addAttributeToFilter('entity_id', $catIds)
                     ->addIsActiveFilter();

foreach($catCollection as $cat){
 // print_r($cat->getData());
 $catname[] =  $cat->getName();
  //echo $cat->getUrl();
}

}
print_r($catname); //category names array
?>

import product image from external url in magento 1.8

Hi in some project i need to import the csv of products in that i have he values of product images is like

http://www.example.com/image.jpg

i need to import that by default there is no mechanism in magento to import external image.

for doinmg this we have to edit the import function in below file

app/code/core/Mage/Catalog/Model/Convert/Adapter/Product.php

around line 754 you will see some code like this

  foreach ($product->getMediaAttributes() as $mediaAttributeCode => $mediaAttribute) {
             if (isset($importData[$mediaAttributeCode])) {
                 $file = trim($importData[$mediaAttributeCode]);
                 if (!empty($file) && !$mediaGalleryBackendModel->getImage($product, $file)) {
                    $arrayToMassAdd[] = array('file' => trim($file), 'mediaAttribute' => $mediaAttributeCode);
                 }
            }
         }


you simply need to replace this dunction with the below one 

foreach ($product->getMediaAttributes() as $mediaAttributeCode => $mediaAttribute) {
                        if (isset($importData[$mediaAttributeCode])) {
                            $file = trim($importData[$mediaAttributeCode]);
                            if (!empty($file) && !$mediaGalleryBackendModel->getImage($product, $file)) {
                                // Start Of Code To Import Images From Urls
                                if (preg_match('%http?://[a-z0-9\-./]+\.(?:jpe?g|png|gif)%i', $file)) {
                                    $path_parts = pathinfo($file);
                                    $html_filename = DS . $path_parts['basename'];
                                    $fullpath = Mage::getBaseDir('media') . DS . 'import' . $html_filename;
                                    if(!file_exists($fullpath)) {
                                        file_put_contents($fullpath, file_get_contents($file));}
                                    $arrayToMassAdd[] = array('file' => trim($html_filename), 'mediaAttribute' => $mediaAttributeCode);
                                }
                                else
                                {
                                    $arrayToMassAdd[] = array('file' => trim($file), 'mediaAttribute' => $mediaAttributeCode);
                                }
                                // End Of Code To Import Images From URLs
                            }
                        }
                        }

Hope this will help you. thanks
