Just in case anyone is looking for a a couple of simple functions [to help automate cURL processes for POST and GET queries] I thought I'd post these. <?php /** * Send a POST requst using cURL * @param string $url to request * @param array $post values to send * @param array $options for cURL * @return string */ function curl_post($url, array $post = NULL, array $options = array()) { $defaults = array( CURLOPT_POST => 1, CURLOPT_HEADER => 0, CURLOPT_URL => $url, CURLOPT_FRESH_CONNECT => 1, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => 1, CURLOPT_FORBID_REUSE => 1, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 4, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => http_build_query($post) ); $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt_array($ch, ($options + $defaults)); if( ! $result = curl_exec($ch)) { trigger_error(curl_error($ch)); } curl_close($ch); return $result; } /** * Send a GET requst using cURL * @param string $url to request * @param array $get values to send * @param array $options for cURL * @return string */ function curl_get($url, array $get = NULL, array $options = array()) { $defaults = array( CURLOPT_URL => $url. (strpos($url, '?') === FALSE ? '?' : ''). http_build_query($get), CURLOPT_HEADER => 0, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => TRUE, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 4 ); $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt_array($ch, ($options + $defaults)); if( ! $result = curl_exec($ch)) { trigger_error(curl_error($ch)); } curl_close($ch); return $result; } ?> --was-- Just in case anyone is looking for a a couple of simple functions I thought I'd post these. <?php /** * Send a POST requst using cURL * @param string $url to request * @param array $post values to send * @param array $options for cURL * @return string */ function curl_post($url, array $post = NULL, array $options = array()) { $defaults = array( CURLOPT_POST => 1, CURLOPT_HEADER => 0, CURLOPT_URL => $url, CURLOPT_FRESH_CONNECT => 1, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => 1, CURLOPT_FORBID_REUSE => 1, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 4, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => http_build_query($post) ); $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt_array($ch, ($options + $defaults)); if( ! $result = curl_exec($ch)) { trigger_error(curl_error($ch)); } curl_close($ch); return $result; } /** * Send a GET requst using cURL * @param string $url to request * @param array $get values to send * @param array $options for cURL * @return string */ function curl_get($url, array $get = NULL, array $options = array()) { $defaults = array( CURLOPT_URL => $url.
