$_POST in background

[swissmissflash]

Hello,

I was curious if anyone can tell me if it's possible to send post variables using php w/o changing the page (no i dont mean post to the same page). I have a site I want to post some variables to that returns xml which I parse and use in my script but i'm not sure if its possible to send the POST variables behind the scenes so it stays on my site.

Hope this makes sense. I will further explain if this doesn't make sense. 🙂

Thanks in advance for any input!

Yes, use the curl functions and do a curl post. You can post data and receive the results back in your page. You'll probably have to add a few other options to the example below to get back the data you want.
