There's two ways I can think of two do this. If you need to do it over SSL, or you want to do it the "right" way, or you have to use POST, use the CURL libraries to construct and send the POST request. Check out the CURL section of the PHP manual -- there's lots of good how-to information there.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.curl.php If you're going for quick and dirty, just assemble a URL with the parameters as GET parameters instead, and just do a file_get_contents() on the URL. file_get_contents('http://target.com/target.php?fname=joe&lname=foo&company=bar'); It's not pretty, but it gets the job done. -Jeromie >I have a PHP form (POST) in which I set the action as: >form action="$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']" method="post" ... > >When submitted, I collect the post key => value pairs and populate an >email to alert me that the form has been submitted.
