Quick php question

[Bad B0y]

I need to post data to a form but I don't want to use sockets. Is there another way maybe with 'header'.

I could not find anything on this anywhere, I'm starting to think it's not possible.

Check out the CURL library.

Yeah, I agree that it's a very good library but I don't want people to recompile php to support curl if they don't have it. I've been looking all over for a solution, but I've had no luck yet ;-)

Ahh! Why didn't ya say so!

The only way I can think of is sockets, which as you no doubt know, kinda suck in PHP4. PHP5 has a way better socket implementation, but thats no good to you now :P

Ill post if i think of anything..

I can't think of any other way than sockets. Even if they implemented a pre-defined function for it, it would still use sockets in the background.

But it's not really straight forward to send a POST header with socket.
