Hi Friends

Can we mixup Curl and PHP programming together ?
Suppose I have to upload a file to web server. And I'll use a Curl Form for posting the file to server with (calling) a PHP action script. Like ...
{HttpForm
{url "http://www.example.com/mysite/uploadfile.php"},
.......
}

Is it possible ?

//Thanx

You can upload files using HttpForm. Search for "upload" in the Curl documentation. There is an example there that might answer your question.

I had seen that example, but that uses the perl action script like .....
{HttpForm
{url "http://www.curl.com/cgi-bin/file-upload.pl"},

So instead of perl I want to use PHP and I believe we can do it.

The Curl HttpForm , using method=HttpRequestMethod.post, encoding=HttpFormData.multipart-mime-type , should work with PHP as is shown in http://us3.php.net/features.file-upload .
