Hi - What am I doing wrong here? I am trying to run a remote "GET" method action form without success - (so that I can submit my website to Google without visiting their site manually).

I've tried ...

<?php $siteurl = "www.whatever.com"; $description = "Description with spaces and commas, in it.";

include

'http://www.google.com/addurl?q=$siteurl&dq=$description';    //

Works - but passes the variable name instead of its value.Any variation from this format doesn't work - such as double-quotes, periods, etc.

header("Location: http://www.google.com/addurl?q=$siteurl&dq=$description") // Doesn't work - my IE6 browser won't make the remote call and instead errors out trying to execute this script locally.
