Its been one week i am trying to log in to any IPB forums. I can log in but i cant get the cookies so i can navigate or post. Can any one help me? Here is my code:

<?

function ExtractString($str, $start, $end) {
  $str_low = ($str);
  if (strpos($str_low, $start) !== false && strpos($str_low, $end, strpos($str_low, $start)) !== false) {
   $pos1 = strpos($str_low, $start) + strlen($start);
   $pos2 = strpos($str_low, $end,strpos($str_low, $start)) - $pos1;
   return substr($str, $pos1, $pos2);
  }
}


function getcookiee($result) {
   $res = explode("\n",$result);
   foreach ($res as $k=>$v ) {
    if (ereg("Set-Cookie",$v)) {
      $c_a = explode(";",trim(str_replace("Set-Cookie:","",$v)));
      foreach ($c_a as $k=>$v ) {
              if (!(ereg("expires",$v))) {
               $arr=explode("=",trim($v));
               $cook[trim($arr[0])]=trim($arr[1]);
              }
          }
    }
  }
return $cook;
}


function cURL($url, $header, $reffer, $p, $cookie)
{
   $ch = curl_init();
   curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, $header);
   curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_NOBODY, $header);
   curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
   curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0);
   curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']);
   curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
   curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
   curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, $reffer);

   if ($p) {
      curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "POST");
      curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
      curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $p);
   }

 if ($cookie!="")
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIE, $cookie);
// else {
                        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, $cookie_file_path);
                        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, $cookie_file_path);
// }


   $result = curl_exec($ch);

   if ($result) {
      return $result;
   } else {
      return curl_error($ch);
   }
   curl_close($ch);
}


$host="http://www.someforums.com";
$login="Username";
$password="password";

$cookie="";

$url=$host."/index.php?act=Login&CODE=01&CookieDate=1";
$reffer="http://www.inpforums.com/index.php?act=Login&CODE=00";
$post['UserName']=urlencode($login);
$post['PassWord']=urlencode($password);


$result=cURL($url,0,$reffer,$post,$cookie);

$cook=getcookiee($result);
   foreach ($cook as $k=>$v) { $cookie[$k]=$v; }
   if (!strstr($result,$login)) {
        echo "error. Invalid Login or Password then Login\n";
        exit;
     } else echo "done\n";

   echo "Redirecting to main page...";
   $url=$host.urldecode(ExtractString($result,$host,"\" "));

$result=cURL($url,0,$reffer,$post,$cookie);

echo $cookie;

?>

Note this code logs me in and i put echo $cookie to check that i get the cookie after loggin in but after running it it does not gives :-[

Please help me

    It's hard to see a use for such a thing other than creating a spambot. May we inquire as to why you want to do this?

      How can it be a spam? The user cannot create a second post before 30 sec and the same post requires captcha.

      Anyhow i am making this application for my project result. well to tell you the truth my project didnt asked for anything to post or something modify, it only required login to any forum. But I thought of making it more usable so it should look more unique. 🆒

      Please help me if you can.

        anyone help please tomorrow is the last date:queasy:
