PHP Curl Problem

[madhavvyas]

Hello Friends

 

I have one question regarding CURL

 

Using CURL how can we prevent Download dialog (normally we got from application/force download)

How to bypass that dialog using CURL

 

It is really urgent

I don't understand your question. What does your script currently do, and what exactly is problematic and needs to be fixed?

I have sequence of operation so using CURL I am doing but in last step of my sequence I need to download one file.

 

when I refer same url in any browser

it will open regular  Open,save dialog box(force -download dialog like you want to save or open in any application)

 

Now my question is How can I download file using CURL in my local host  without providing response in that dialog box.(If in dialog box I say save then It will save but I want this thing using CURL)

What kind of file is it? (That shouldn't really matter, but the more information the better).

 

Also, can we see what you have so far.

Get the url that prompts for the force download and use

file_put_contents("myfile.dat",file_get_contents($url));

You can use serialize().

[madhavvyas]

serialize() not works because

foreach ($post as $var => $val) {
if($var=="columndata")
	$postFields[] = "$var=".urlencode(serialize($val));
else		
	$postFields[] = "$var=$val";
}

curl_setopt($conn, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($conn, CURLOPT_POST, count($post));
curl_setopt ($conn, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, join("&",$postFields));
$page = curl_exec ($conn);
