How to forward a POSTed form to another server and
catch the return for further processing.
I think I did this before. But now I have completely
forgot how that was done. The posted form data is
processed on the other server, the results should be
returned or captured by the first server. Obviously my
brain is not working.
You can use fopen() and contexts:
(mostly copied from php|architect, May 2004, www.phparch.com)
$data = '';
foreach($_POST as $key=>$value)
{ $data .= $key.'='.urlencode($value).'&'; }
$opts = array(
'http' => array(
'method' => 'POST',
'header' => "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n" .
'Content-Length: '.strlen($data),
'content' => $data
));
$context = stream_context_create($opts);
$fp = fopen('http://localhost/post.php', 'r', false, $context);
