When POST data is sent to a page, it's as if somebody typed the text into a
textarea and hit a submit button.  Even though this is being done
programmatically, the POST method will behave the same.  SOmebody in their
(your)code will have to write something similiar to:

$postData = "xVar=" . rawurlencode( "<?xml version=\"1.0\"><sometag
value=\"some value\"></xml>" );
PostToHost( "http://www.domain.com"; "/phpfile.php", $postData );


then your script would access that XML data through the
HTTP_POST_VARS['xVar'] or $xVar as normal

/* not my function, found on some PHP site */
function PostToHost( $host, $path, $data_to_send ) {
 $cRetVal = "";
 $fp = fsockopen( $host, 80 );

 fputs( $fp, "POST $path HTTP/1.1\n" );
 fputs( $fp, "Host: $host\n" );
 fputs( $fp, "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\n" );
 fputs( $fp, "Content-length: " . strlen($data_to_send) . "\n" );
 fputs( $fp, "Connection: close\n\n" );
 fputs( $fp, $data_to_send );

 while( !feof( $fp )) {
   $cRetVal .= fgets( $fp, 128 );
 }

 fclose( $fp );
 return $cRetVal;
}
