Hi All,
I'm trying to setup a PHP script that will send a POST data request to a
web form. The script needs to be automatic and not driven by a web form.
For example.
I have a cron script that runs every 15 minutes. The cron script calls
my php script on the server and sends the important data to a web based
form without human interaction. The data has to be passed with the
method="post". Sending the data via a URL request does not suffice.
So my question in general is: How can I send HTTP POST data to a remote
interface without using an HTML FORM?.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
TIA!
