If you're server is *nix I think you will need to recompile PHP with cURL.  If it is windows you should be able to just add the extension.

 

If you can't do that, you may be able to use file or file_get_contents or something like that instead of the cURL functions.

here is code

<?php

$action ='login form url';
$ref='';
$method='POST';
$response = http($target=$action, $ref, $method, $data, EXCL_HEAD);
echo $response['FILE'];
function http($target, $ref, $method, $data_array, $incl_head)
{
    # Initialize PHP/CURL handle
$ch = curl_init();

    # Prcess data, if presented
    if(is_array($data_array))
        {
    # Convert data array into a query string (ie animal=dog&sport=baseball)
        foreach ($data_array as $key => $value) 
            {
            if(strlen(trim($value))>0)
                $temp_string[] = $key . "=" . urlencode($value);
            else
                $temp_string[] = $key;
            }
        $query_string = join('&', $temp_string);
        }
#i am directly sending post data here.not using data array.hope you got it
       $query_string ='username=xxxx&password=yyyy&acc-password-txt=Password&x=47&y=8';

    if($method == HEAD)
        {
    	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, TRUE);

hi sir,i think my server is *nix.can you tell me what you mean by recompile with curl??

i want to post login detail to form and maintain my session in does  file or file_get_contents support it?

 

[bhavin12300]

any one please guide me.

waiting for your reply.

i came to know that there is something wrong with request made by server.

what i mean is when i run script on linux server, it is making request using "GET" to make for login thought i am making true for post and false for get request in curl option.while on windows it is using "POST" .

SO I THINK I SHOULD CHANGE SOME PARAMETER OR DO SOMETHING SO SCRIPT ON SERVER WILL MAKE REQUEST IN "POST"

DO YOU KNOW HOW?

HERE IS MY HEADER FOR LINUX
