Hi all- how do I modify the following function to work over a proxy server?
Thanks for any help.

/* sendToHost
 * ~~~~~~~~~~
 * Params:
 *   $host      - Just the hostname.  No http:// or
                  /path/to/file.html portions
 *   $method    - get or post, case-insensitive
 *   $path      - The /path/to/file.html part
 *   $data      - The query string, without initial question mark
 *   $useragent - If true, 'MSIE' will be sent as
                  the User-Agent (optional)
 *
 * Examples:
 *   sendToHost('www.google.com','get','/search','q=php_imlib');
 *   sendToHost('www.example.com','post','/some_script.cgi',
 *              'param=First+Param&second=Second+param');
