cURL script question
teh script below gives me the following error:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected '=' in /var/www/html/tmpscrpts/curl2.php on line 88
line 88 is :
Code:
$data_string .= $key . '=' . $value;
Code:
<?php
/*
There are two fundamental ways for PHP to send data to another
CGI via the POST-method: CURL and fopen.
Where CURL is the easier of the two, fopen is more commonly available.
Check the output of phpinfo() to see whether CURL is available on your system.
*/
/*
This method uses CURL to contact the server.
*/

// Get a CURL handle

// Tell CURL the URL of the CGI
curl_setopt ($curl_handle, CURLOPT_URL, $HTTP_method . '://' . $hostname . $cgi);
// This section sets various options. See http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.curl-setopt.php

curl_setopt ($curl_handle, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
curl_setopt ($curl_handle, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt ($curl_handle, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt ($curl_handle, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data_string);
// Perform the POST and get the data returned by the server.
$result = curl_exec ($curl_handle) or die ("There has been an error");
// Close the CURL handle
curl_close ($curl_handle);
// Process the return
print $result;
any ideas why?
I'm also not sure if i should have a coma behind the last data field:
Code:
'thumbSize' => '110' //dont know if true should have quotes around it it doesnt in config file
);
or
Code:
'thumbSize' => '110', //dont know if true should have quotes around it it doesnt in config file
);
tried both ways and still got the error... |
