how to send data to a HTTP web server using libcurl

[gregerly]

Using PHP:

[PHP]$url_to_send_da ta_to = "http://www.someurl.com/somepage.php";
$ch = curl_init($url_ to_send_data_to ); [/PHP]

You can then set options like this - there are more options than this, so do some research on how you want to set your options:

[PHP]curl_setopt($ch , CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch , CURLOPT_RETURNT RANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch , CURLOPT_POSTFIE LDS,$fields);[/PHP]

Then you send the requst:

[PHP]$resp = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close ($ch);[/PHP]

The variable $resp above holds the response from the server.

Hope that helps.
