Hello,



You're right, a POST without a body is not a POST.



But in my example CURLOPT_NOBODY is set to FALSE. I don't know why
PHP-Twitter API set this parameter to false (a simple turnarround is
just to not set the option), but setting "NO NOBODY=YES BODY" should not
modify the POST into GET, no ?



Documentation actually says "CURLOPT_NOBODY      TRUE to exclude the body
from the output. Request method is then set to HEAD. Changing this to
FALSE does not change it to GET."

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

You cannot do a POST without a body.

Description:
------------
POSTing performs a GET. Seems to be related to option CURLOPT_NOBODY=0
as used in twitter's PHP clients like PHP_Twitter.



Removing this option corrects the issue. I'm not sure this is a bug, but
I think this still is an issue that needs (at least) to be documented.

Test script:
---------------
$headers=array('Expect:', 'X-Twitter-Client:
','X-Twitter-Client-Version: ','X-Twitter-Client-URL: ');



$ch = curl_init();



curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,"http://twitter.com/statuses/update.json";);

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);

//curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPGET, false); - Does not affect
behaviour

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, array('status'=>'hello world');

        

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, 'twitter_user:twitter_pass');

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_NOBODY, 0);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, true);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION,1);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT,true);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);



$response = curl_exec($ch);

        

$t=curl_getinfo($ch);

curl_close($ch);



echo $t;

Expected result:
----------------
