Hi. I am new to PHP and im having a bit of trouble with a curl function. What I want to happen is have my whois.php script call a script on another server which processes the request and returns variables. I have got it working (sort of) The whois.php is getting to the other server and the results are being returned but I can not get to the variables returned unless I print the page. I do not want to have the page printed because it is printing the values on the page and my script later takes the variables and displays them in a table. Here's a sample of the code that I have : function getCurlPage ($pageSpec) { $ch = curl_init ($pageSpec); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1); $tmp = curl_exec ($ch); curl_close ($ch); $tmp = preg_replace('/(?s)<meta http-equiv="Expires"[^>]*>/i', '', $tmp); return $tmp; } $output = getCurlPage($url); print("<br> The output is: " . $output); Any ideas how i can do this without having the body of the retuned page printed and only keep the post data??
