POSTing from PHP script

[Anon]

How can I POST variables from PHP script? I mean, when I open URL with file("http://www.server.com/cgi-bin/script?param=value") GET method is applied. I need the same thing using the POST method and of course, I need response that can be saved to file.

thanks...

Look at an example here:

This is a little code I wrote to update DHS.org hosts, which uses fsockopen and the POST method to get results. Notice after you open the sock, you can do while(!feof($pointer))
$buffer.= fgets($fp, 1024);

which will return the results from the POST into $buffer (or whatever). Hope that helps.
