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;
}
$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)
?

might be minor errors, but you get the picture.

you might also want to use urlencode() in here to make sure the URL
stays valid.

PHP 5 has the http_build_query function which does exactly what you want: http://www.php.net/http_build_query Chris Martin van den Berg wrote: Newbe question: How does one convert an array into a HTML GET request easely?

Re: [PHP] convert array to HTML GET request
if i understand well you need to get an array from html post if you use the same name for your html fields you automatically have an array in $_POST eg input type=text name=myfield value=field_1 input type=text name=myfield value=field_2 you'll get the array ar_myfield = $_POS['myfield'] you should achieve the same result using myfield[key] in the name of html hyh by ag. 2005/10/2, Martin van den Berg [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Newbe question: How does one convert an array into a HTML GET request easely?
