re: [PHP3] - post & redirect From: Peter Sorger (sorgo <email protected>)

Some time ago, Jason Brooke has posted a code to pass variables to another
page rather by POST method than the GET method
the code was:

    $host="my.host.com";
    $mydata="k=$k";
    $sp=fsockopen($host,80);
    fputs($sp,"POST /index.php3 HTTP/1.1\n");
    fputs($sp,"Host: $host\n");
    fputs($sp,"Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\n");
    fputs($sp,"Content-length: ".strlen($mydata)."\n");
    fputs($sp,"Connection: close\n\n");
    fputs($sp,$mydata);
    fclose($sp);

The problem is:
When I post the variables like that, the only thing I do, is open a
connection from php3 script to the other php3 script without getting any
output. I tried to

echo fgets($sp,1024)."<BR>";

serveral times, but while the connection was between the two scripts, it did
not detect my browser either I could not get to any cookies or even the
"REAL" IP, it returned the IP address of the server, where was the script
located.

I need something that will let MY browser post the variables to the server.

Anyone gets any idea ?
