Basic Curl Question

[Drezard]

I work as a Network Engineer and we get a number of customers who forgot their modem passwords.

 

So, Im trying to write a Curl script (and slowly learning Curl as well). Ive written a test script, which is here:

 

<?php

// curl.php

$curl = curl_init();

curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://www.rootedbox.info/curl/http-protocol/protected/');

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_USERPWD, 'admin:password');

$output = curl_exec($curl);

$info = curl_getinfo($curl);

if ($info['http_code'] == 401) {
        echo "Password is incorrect";
}
else {
        echo "Password is: password";
}

curl_close($curl);

?>

 

How do I make it so that it doesn't display the page returned....

 

So currently, when I run this script, it displays the "401 - Error" and then my "The password is...." bit. I want it ONLY to display the "The password is..." bit.

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

curl_setopt($resource, $option, $value);

 

$ch needs to be $curl to refer to your cURL resource.

That should fix it.
