RE: [PHP] How to make HTTP call to another address?

[Jay Blanchard]

[snip]

I've recently set up some Tomcat/Java/Servlet stuff that provides some
high-level functions I wish to make available from PHP.  In other words,
from PHP, I want to make an HTTP call to an address like:


http://mycompany.com/myservlet?request=doSomething&arg1=meat&arg2=potato
es

and then use the returned stream of data to service the original PHP
request.  Clear?

There is always cURL http://www.php.net/curl

I sometimes wonder why we keep ignoring lowly old 
include("http://yoururlhere.com";);

I would suggest using the PEAR HTTP_Request package for single-shot
requests and HTTP_Client for multiple requests to the same server
(like if you need your script to login first).

http://pear.php.net/packahe/HTTP_Client

[PHP] How to make HTTP call to another address?

[Matt Busche]

I've recently set up some Tomcat/Java/Servlet stuff that provides some
high-level functions I wish to make available from PHP.  In other words,
from PHP, I want to make an HTTP call to an address like:


http://mycompany.com/myservlet?request=doSomething&arg1=meat&arg2=potatoes

and then use the returned stream of data to service the original PHP
request.  Clear?

I quickly found the PHP HTTP library (
http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.http.php ), but my quick perusal makes me
think this is only useful for controlling the HTTP response sent back to the
browser making the original PHP request.

Can someone help me?

FYI:  I'm a newbie.  Please forgive me if this is an old-hat question.
