I need use fopen with POST

[Anon]

Hi friends,

My problem is:
I need to call URL with parameters using POST .
It´s easy with GET.
Example:

$url = "http://www.example.com/cgi-bin/teste?parameter1=ok&parameter2=true";
$fp = fopen($url,"r");
$text = fread($fp,9999999);
echo $text;
fclose($fp);

but the URL that I need to call is protected to user by "GET".
I need to do parsing with the response of fopen.

Thanks for attencion and excuse me by my bad english.

I think that you need CURL functions.
Check:

Or, you can go for raw http.

$fp = fsockopen("www.example.com", 80);

$uri = "POST /cgi-bin/teste?param1=1&param2=2 HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n";

fputs($fp, $uri);
while ($line = fgets($fp)) {
$document.=$line;
}
fclose($fp);

Now you have the contents of the webpage in $document 🙂 hope that helps:
