QUERY_STRING from command line

Hi, I am working on a php script which is accessed as below http://10.10.10.10/pageone.php?hellohowareyou in the pageone.php i am accessing the variable $_SERVER["QUERY_STRING" and i am getting the proper "hellohowareyou" as value. All these days i was accessing this over the browser. But now i need to POST to this page from command line. When i am usnig the below logic to post to this page, i am not getting any value in the $_SERVER["QUERY_STRING". -------------------------- $usepath="http://10.10.10.10/pageone.php"; $host="10.10.10.10"; $data="hellohowareyou"; $fp = fsockopen($host, 80, &$errno, &$errstr, 360); fputs($fp, "POST $usepath HTTP/1.0\n"); $strlength = strlen($data); fputs($fp, "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\n"); fputs($fp, "Content-length: " . $strlength . "\n\n"); fputs($fp, "?$data \n\n"); $output = ""; while (!feof($fp)) { $output .= fgets($fp, 1024); } //print " out put is $output aaa <br> "; //exit; fclose($fp); print $output."aaa\n"; -------------------- Can some one suggest me some solution..
