Re: automatic credit card processing

great! it works! thank you very much! this is the code which does exactly what I wanted: $ch = curl_init (); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1); curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url); curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "RESP_FORMAT=1"); $result= curl_exec ($ch); curl_close ($ch); cheerio Martin Towell wrote:

I use online clearing via a third party --> so what I have to do: 1. SSL-TCP/IP connection to this third party-server 2. perform basic http authentication 3. send authorization request parameters to the software (via POST or GET) 4. receive + parse authorization response 1-3 is not a real problem, but how can I receive the response, before it is printed out to the browser/screen? I know I should get the response string into a variable so the whole procedure is "silent", but how? thanks a lot for every little help! cheers dominic
