Have you looked at this tutorial - http://devzone.zend.com/node/view/id/1081 It has an example specifically for how to use curl with POST Respectfully, Ligaya Turmelle -----Original Message----- From: Charley [mailto:charleyshipman@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, January 03, 2007 1:24 AM To: php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: I need help with PHP, cURL, and POST I am an experienced programmer who is just learning php and curl. I have tried for several days to figure out how to use curl with POST to get history information from e-gold. The following script, which I guess uses GET works when XXXX YYYY ZZZZ have appropriate stuff in them. But no matter what I have tried, and whose examples I have followed I cannot get this to work with CURLOPT_POST set to true with what I think is the appropriate information supplied. I am testing this from XAMPP 1.5.5 on a Windows XP system, and the SSL stuff and everything I think I need is present and seems to be working fine. The commented out form also works, so I guess e-gold will accept POSTed data. I just do not know how to get curl to send it for me or what options I need to make it work. Would someone be interested in showing me exactly what I need to modify this script to work with POST? <?php session_start(); /***** <form action="https://www.e-gold.com/acct/historycsv.asp"; method="post"> <input type="hidden" name="AccountID" value="XXXXXX"> <input type="hidden" name="PassPhrase" value="YYYYYYYYYYYYYYY"> <input type="hidden" name="startmonth" value="12"> <input type="hidden" name="startday" value="1"> <input type="hidden" name="startyear" value="2006"> <input type="hidden" name="endmonth" value="12"> <input type="hidden" name="endday" value="31"> <input type="hidden" name="endyear" value="2006"> <input type="hidden" name="paymentsreceived" value="1"> <input type="hidden" name="fees" value="1"> <input type="submit" value="Submit"> *****/ $pf = "AccountID=XXXXXX"; $pf .= "&PassPhrase=YYYYYYYYYYYYYYY"; $pf .= "&startmonth=12"; $pf .= "&startday=1"; $pf .= "&startyear=2006"; $pf .= "&endmonth=12"; $pf .= "&endday=31"; $pf .= "&endyear=2006"; $pf .= "&paymentsreceived=1"; $pf .= "&fees=1"; $pf .= "&paymentidfilter=ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ"; $ch = curl_init(); // Follow any Location headers curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1); $url='https://www.e-gold.com/acct/historycsv.asp?' . $pf; curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, FALSE); $data=curl_exec($ch); $info=curl_getinfo($ch); echo "<p>curlerror=" . curl_error($ch); curl_close($ch); echo "<p>data="; var_dump($data); echo "<p>info="; var_dump($info); ?> -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
