I already have a curl script that gets the web page, but it doesn't pass the
parameters
Being new to PHP I haven't the first idea how to modify it so that it does.
Script is as follows:
$url = "http://www.xxxxxx.com/query.asp?param1=val1¶m2=val2";;
foreach ($_POST as $key=>$post) {
$post=str_replace(" ", "+", $post);
$url.=$key."=".$post."&";
}
$ch = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 0);
$data = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
$data=str_replace('.asp', '.php', $data);
echo $data;
This returns the web page, but ignores val1 and val2 which are necessary to
execute the query.

Hi Bob,
One thing I see is that you're appending values on to the end of a url that
already has 2 values, so you should place the "&" at the beginning of your
line instead of at the end. Value 2 is being merged with whatever value is
coming after it in your example. So, try something like:
$url .= "&" . $key. "=" .$post;
Also, I'd suggest url encoding the post value rather than merely hunting
down spaces and swapping them out with "+".
Hope this helps,
Adam

Instead of concatenating strings, I suggest to use the http_build_query()
function:
<?php
$data = array('param1' => 'val1',
'param2' => 'val2',
'param3' => 'val3');
$query = http_build_query($data);
echo "Query: {$query}\n";
?>
So, to create a query string based on your $_POST request parameters,
you just need to use the function as follows:
<?php
$query = http_build_query($_POST);
echo "Query: {$query}\n";
?>
This will create the proper query string to be used on your URL.

I am using this syntax to check for a valid e-mail address
list($userName, $mailDomain) = split("@", $buyer_email);
if (checkdnsrr($mailDomain, "MX")) {
if no domain is provided ( ie e-mail address is something like “ron” with no @
) the following error is displayed:
Warning: checkdnsrr() [function.checkdnsrr]: Host and type cannot be empty
Can I suppress this from displaying so *just* my error message displays?
