You can open a connection to any server with fsockopen() and then send data with fgets(). It should be possible because a web browser works on telnet port 80, so there is no reason why you should be able to do it in PHP.

The thing you need to know is what kind of conversation the script needs to have with the server. Try accessing the site in telnet port 80 and see what happens. Jono
