note 50726 added to ref.xml

This code uses CURL to connect to a server and post XML info to it and then capture the response from the server. I spent hours trying to find the solution and it's really quite simple. Easy to say AFTER you find the answer. Hope it helps someone. <?php // store your XML code into a variable line by line // this is simply an example. you should replace it with your XML code $XPost = "<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>"; $XPost .= "<XMLCodeBody>"; $XPost .= "<MessageInfo>"; $XPost .= "<messageID>8af793f9af34bea0ecd7eff71c94d6</messageID>"; $XPost .= "<messageTimestamp>20040710050758444000+600</messageTimestamp>"; $XPost .= "<timeoutValue>60</timeoutValue>"; $XPost .= "<apiVersion>spxml-3.0</apiVersion>"; $XPost .= "</MessageInfo>"; $XPost .= "</XMLCodeBody>"; $url = "https://www.urltopost.data.to"; // enter the URL to post to here $ch = curl_init(); // initialize curl handle curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$url); // set url to post to curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1); // return into a variable curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1); // capture the returned headers curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 4); // times out after 4s curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $XPost); // add POST fields $result = curl_exec($ch); // run the whole process // the headers returned from the server will now be stored in $result // for now display the result to screen echo "<pre>"; print_r($result); echo "</pre>"; // once you have the result you can simply extract the response and use it. ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.xml.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+50726 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50726&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50726&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50726&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50726&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50726&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+50726&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
