RE: [PHP-DB] How to forward a POSTed form to another server and catch the return for further processing

hi this should do the trick Peter // this is the script to pass the post onto $server_to_post_to = 'http://www.test.com/somescript.php'; $url = parse_url($server_to_post_to); unset($request_data) ; //run through the data POSTed to this server and build a new POST request foreach ($_POST as $name => $value) { if (strlen($request_data) > 0) $request_data .= '&'; $request_data .= $name.'='.urlencode($value); } //create a new post to the other sever $request = "POST ".$url['path']." HTTP/1.1\r\n". "Host: ".$url['host']."\r\n". "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n". "Content-length: ".strlen($request_data)."\r\n\r\n". $request_data; // Open the connection $fp = fsockopen($url['host'], 80, $err_num, $err_msg, 30); if ($fp) { // Submit form fputs($fp, $request); // Get the response while (!feof($fp)) { $response .= fgets($fp,1024); } fclose($fp); //do somthing with $response here } else { //could not connect to server print 'Error '.$err_num.' '.$err_msg; } > -----Original Message----- > From: Yanglong Zhu [mailto:yanglong@yahoo.com] > Sent: 15 August 2004 01:41 > To: php-db@lists.php.net > Subject: [PHP-DB] How to forward a POSTed form to another server and > catch the return for further processing > > > How to forward a POSTed form to another server and > catch the return for further processing. > > I think I did this before.
