How can I send variables from a PHP script to another URL using POST without using forms and hidden variables?

Hi anand,

There are two ways we can submit without form. The most reconizable is using CURL function. For example ->

<?
$URL="http://www.test.com/test.php";
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$URL);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "var=$val&var1=$val1");
curl_exec ($ch);
curl_close ($ch);
?>

Another way is socket programming.

<?
// Generate the request header
$vHeader =
"POST $vURL HTTP/1.1\n".
"Host: $vHost\n".
"Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\n".
"Content-Length: $vLength\n\n".
"$ReqBody\n";

// Open the connection to the host
$vSock = fsockopen($vHost, 80, &$errno, &$errstr);
if (!$vSock)
{
$vResult["errno"] = $errno;
$vResult["errstr"] = $errstr;
return $vResult;
}

$vVal = 0;
fputs($vSock, $vHeader);
while (!feof($vSock))

$vResult[$vVal++] = fgets($vSock, 128);
}
?>

In this way you can submit the values.
