Remote session start & end !

[php new bie]

hi,

It may be a noob Q, but I'll appreciate any help :-)

 

www.example.com is a remote host that uses ASP applications and java scripts and window's frames.

 

So I need to get some data from these systems using

 

file_get_contents function but the site depends on session .

 

Any way to make a connection to the remote host and retrieve the generated session and use it through my code, then close the connection when the page completely loaded and if reloaded .. the cycle repeated by getting the new session and so on !

your need to use cURL, with cookies, try this untested function

 

function cUrl_get_contents($url)
{
$ch = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, "cookie.txt");
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
return curl_exec ($ch);
}

 

PS i am having a bad phping day so this will probably fail!
