Thanks :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-03-04 14:18:19] philippe dot gablain at gmail dot com Hello, You're right, a POST without a body is not a POST. But in my example CURLOPT_NOBODY is set to FALSE. I don't know why PHP-Twitter API set this parameter to false (a simple turnarround is just to not set the option), but setting "NO NOBODY=YES BODY" should not modify the POST into GET, no ? Documentation actually says "CURLOPT_NOBODY TRUE to exclude the body from the output. Request method is then set to HEAD. Changing this to FALSE does not change it to GET." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-03-04 13:48:25] [email protected] Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php You cannot do a POST without a body. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-03-03 17:14:14] philippe dot gablain at gmail dot com Description: ------------ POSTing performs a GET. Seems to be related to option CURLOPT_NOBODY=0 as used in twitter's PHP clients like PHP_Twitter. Removing this option corrects the issue. I'm not sure this is a bug, but I think this still is an issue that needs (at least) to be documented. Test script: --------------- $headers=array('Expect:', 'X-Twitter-Client: ','X-Twitter-Client-Version: ','X-Twitter-Client-URL: '); $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,"http://twitter.com/statuses/update.json";); curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true); //curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPGET, false); - Does not affect behaviour curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, array('status'=>'hello world'); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, 'twitter_user:twitter_pass'); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_NOBODY, 0); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION,1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT,true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers); $response = curl_exec($ch); $t=curl_getinfo($ch); curl_close($ch); echo $t; Expected result: ---------------- HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Wed, 03 Mar 2010 16:10:15 GMT Server: hi Status: 200 OK X-Transaction: ...
