You also need to URLEncode the $value, either before you pass it in, or inside the function itself. Where did you get this PostToHost function?... Did you modify it? Cuz, like, I don't think this one is very good... Where did that "content-disposition: " come from? And virtually every FORM on the web has more than one input, so you're going to need to handle that. Google for "PostToHost Rasmus Lerdorf" to find the "original" and compare it with yours.
