After your last header field and the start of your POST data, you need to include 2 cr and newlines (\r\n\r\n). Should be okay after that. A code snippet: fputs($fp, "POST $scriptPath HTTP/1.1\r\n"); fputs($fp, "Host: $host\r\n"); if (is_array($cookies)) { while (list($key, $val) = each($cookies)) { fputs($fp, "Cookie: $key=$val\r\n"); } } fputs($fp, "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n"); fputs($fp, "Content-length: ".strlen($POSTvars)."\r\n"); fputs($fp, "Connection: close\r\n\r\n"); fputs($fp, $POSTvars); Jeff > Is there some glaring error?? > > Todd > > -- > Todd Cary Ariste Software todd@aristesoftware.com > >
