For anyone who is having trouble getting some of the advanced functionality to work in whatever version of PHP you have, I wrote a little wrapper for the command line version of curl. The function below is for Windows (hence, the curl.exe), but it works the same way under Linux or whatever. The curl man page enumerates a ton of options you can use... function curlPageGrabber($destinationURL, $refererURL, $postData, $autoForward = false, $autoGrabCookies = true, $curlDebug = false) { $curlString = "c:\curl\curl.exe -i -v -m 30 -L -b c:\curl\cookiejar.txt -c c:\curl\cookiejar.txt "; $curlString .= " -A \"Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322;)\" "; $curlString .= " -H \"Accept-Language: en-us\" "; $curlString .= " -H \"Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate\" "; $curlString .= " -H \"Host: affiliate-program.amazon.com\" "; $curlString .= " -H \"Accept: */*\" "; $curlString .= " --compressed "; //$curlString .= " --trace-ascii "; if ($refererURL != '') { $curlString .= "-e \"".$refererURL."\" "; } if ($postData != '') { $curlString.= " -d \"$postData\" "; } $curlString .= $destinationURL; if ($curlDebug == true) { echo "<p>curlString: $curlString</p>"; } $temp = exec($curlString, $retval); $htmlData = ''; foreach ($retval as $arrayLine) { $htmlData .= $arrayLine."\r\n"; } if ($curlDebug == true) { echo "<textarea cols=80 rows=20>$htmlData</textarea>"; } return $htmlData; } // end function ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 216.185.175.114 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.3 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER, HTML_MESSAGE autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.curl.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/69175 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69175/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69175/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69175/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69175/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69175/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69175/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69175 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/69175 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
