Bug description:http_post_data parameter documentation wrong, but better
Description:
------------
According to the http_post_data documentation the second parameter is
optional:
<code>
string http_post_data(string $url [, string $data [, array $options [,
array &$info ]]])
</code>
However, when you try http_post_data('http://...'); this error is
returned:
"expects at least 2 parameters, 1 given"
It would be great if the code were changed to match the documentation, in
that there are times when POST-ing an empty body could be valid (requesting
a "ticket" to later PUT to, etc).
Please consider the making the library match the documentation.
Thanks.
