Thats what the Http Header says, with xx(number) being variables. Is there any way to formulate a packet with PHP to send all of this automatically to the site? I think you use sockets but I'm not sure how to.

Not sure I understand. Perhaps you could forego the FORM tags for something with javascript...or you could design something else to process a quasi-form action.

Or, are you just looking for INPUT type=hidden?

I'm not sure this is a php question...

this will submit a form onload of a page...
uses tiny bit of JS

//body tag
<body onload="javascript:document.form.submit();" >



<form name="form" method="post" action="$host">
<input type="hidden" name="description" value="Text stuff" />
<input type="submit" style=" visibility: hidden" name="submit" value="submit" />
</form>

NOTE: Remove space in 'javascript'
as this site adds it automatically
