I can do this pretty easily in |PERL (which I may have to if I can't find a PHP solution). Also I need |to do the https post without any kind of client or user interaction. I |have checked through php.net and phpbuilder.com but have only come up |with things for HTTP POST (no SSL Encryption). Anyone run across |something like this, or can point me in a direction to look? | On Jul 16, 2003, "Ralph Guzman" claimed that: | |I think what you are looking for is socket connections: |http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fsockopen.php | |Or CURL | |http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.curl.php | Another option for you is to ouput a blank page with just a form pointing where you need it to, with hidden inputs, and at the end of the page or in a <body onLoad=''>, <script language="JavaScript"> document.form.submit(); </script> Assuming your client has JavaScript.
