Re: Sending data via POST

Shawn - Many thanks! I have a class I wrote that does that, but I thought I may have overlooked something simplier. Todd Shawn Kelly wrote:

This is from php.net: Just change the $out to fill with your POST request (instead of the GET). Works good, you can change ports. :) |$fp = fsockopen("www.example.com", 80, $errno, $errstr, 30); if (!$fp) { echo "$errstr ($errno)<br />\n"; } else { $out = "GET / HTTP/1.1\r\n"; $out .= "Host: www.example.com\r\n"; $out .= "Connection: Close\r\n\r\n"; fwrite($fp, $out); while (!feof($fp)) {

       echo fgets($fp, 128);

} fclose($fp); } |

    Currently I send data to another page by using

    header("Location: http://" . |$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] .|
    |                    dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']) . |
    |                    "/" . $relative_url  . |
    |                    "?" . $my_data);|
    ||
    ||My client would like the data passed via a POST rather than in the
    URL.

    Can this be done and if so, how?

    ||Many thanks....
