How does one convert an array into a HTML GET request easely? Are
there any standard functions?
Same for HTML POST requests.
HTTP GET and POST requests are formatted the same, just sent in
different ways. I don't know if there's a function; I'd just use:
<?php
$myArray = array(
'apples' => 'oranges',
'pears' => 'peaches',
);
$queryParts = array();
foreach( $myArray as $key=>$value ) {
$queryParts[] = "$key=$value";
you might also want to use urlencode() in here to make sure the URL
stays valid.

}
$query = implode( '&', $queryParts );
// For GET, use e.g.:
$data = file_get_contents( "http://www.example.com/?$query"; );
// For POST, pass $query to curl_setopt for an HTTP POST (see CURL docs)
?>
Disclaimer: I typed this from memory and haven't tested it, so there
might be minor errors, but you get the picture.
