Hi Ken,
This code chunk should do the trick.....
- -- php code --
$data ="insert=data&location=here"; /* This would be the data that needs to be posted
to the site - urlencode it */
/* Headers for http transaction....replace /folder/pages.ext */
$header = "POST /folder/pages.ext HTTP/1.1\r\n".
"Accept-Language: en-us\r\n". /* Additional info for the receiving
server.....optional */
"Content-Length: ".strlen($data)."\r\n". /* This line is *very*
important - length of posted data */
"Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n". /* Type of
content the server can expect from us */
"User-Agent: YourCustomUser-Agent (compatible; Linux 2.4; RedHat
7.2;)\r\n". /* optional */
"Host: host.com\r\n". /* the "host" of the site you are sending the
posted data to.....*/
"Cookie: cookie-name=cookie-val\r\n\r\n". /* We can even send
cookies!!!! optional......remove and add an extra \r\n to the above line */
"$data"; /* this is where the data is sent....no need to change this
line. */
$fp = fsockopen ("host.com", 80, $errno, $errstr, 30);
if (!$fp) {
echo "$errstr ($errno)<br>\n";
} else {
fputs ($fp, $header);
while (!feof($fp)) {
echo fgets ($fp,128); /* Data returned from server.....use as you like */
}
fclose ($fp);
}
- -- End php code --
