I'm using php to have several servers communicate between eachother. I
want to do the following:
Server A sends a request to server B. Server B stores some information
about this request, and sends back a response to A (so far it's regular
HTTP). Next, server B must send an HTTP request to server C.
How can I initiate an HTTP request to server C with PHP?
from http://www.php-center.de/faq/faq-scripts.html#scripts-3 :
function PostToHost($host, $path, $referer, $data_to_send) {
$fp = fsockopen($host,80);
printf("Open!\n");
fputs($fp, "POST $path HTTP/1.1\n");
fputs($fp, "Host: $host\n");
fputs($fp, "Referer: $referer\n");
fputs($fp, "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\n");
fputs($fp, "Content-length: ".strlen($data_to_send)."\n");
fputs($fp, "Connection: close\n\n");
fputs($fp, "$data_to_send\n");
printf("Sent!\n");
while(!feof($fp)) {
$res .= fgets($fp, 128);
}
printf("Done!\n");
fclose($fp);return $res; }
$data = "pid=14&poll_vote_number=2";
printf("Go!\n");
$x = PostToHost(
"www.linux.com",
"/polls/index.phtml",
"http://www.linux.com/polls/index.phtml?pid=14";,
$data
);
Cheers, -sapporo.
