Hi

There is one method using cURL you can do it...

Code: Select all

$curl="abc.com";
//curl_headdata contains the fields of the form
$curl_headdata="SLD=$domainame&TLD=$tlds&submit=submit";

$curlconn = curl_init();
   
      curl_setopt($curlconn, CURLOPT_POST, true);
      curl_setopt($curlconn, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "$curl_headata");
   
   curl_setopt($curlconn, CURLOPT_URL, $curl_url);
   curl_setopt($curlconn, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
   $curlresult = curl_exec($curlconn);
echo $crulresult;

You probably don't even need curl. Have a little look at fopen() or file_get_contents() and you will see that you can use any number of protocols.... this means you can fetch remote files with just the URL.

Code: Select all

$googleHomePage = file_get_contents('http://www.google.com');
You're going to have to parse them yourself though, but curl would never help you with that either.
Good luck.
