curl form submition help

[fix3r]

Lets say I have a website, that has a form on it.

How would I go about using php to insert things into the form and push submit and see what it outputs.

 

The website I want to submit to isn't on my server it would be a different designated site.

 

It doesn't involve cookies or anything like that I just need to search for some text on the submitted page.

 

How would I do this in curl? I'm very clueless because all the tutorials I see has to do with cookies and such and I don't need that.

$post=array("name"=>"value","foo"=>"bar");
$c=curl_init("http://somesite.com/form.php");
curl_setopt($c,CURLOPT_POST,true);
curl_setopt($c,CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,$post);

$result=curl_exec($c);

Would it matter if the page that has the form is lets say a ".psp"?

[fix3r]

$post=array("name"=>"value","foo"=>"bar");
$c=curl_init("http://somesite.com/form.php");
curl_setopt($c,CURLOPT_POST,true);
curl_setopt($c,CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,$post);

$result=curl_exec($c);

 

This doesn't seem to work. What else would I have to do?

are you sure you have the form processing page not the form page?

I don't really know the difference. The form processing page is the same as the form page :|
