send from a file as if from a form

[Don Diego]

 

I have this code to send values to a file.

 

The values are entries received from a form, but cannot be sent directly from the form.

 

I need to send this data so it is received as if it were from the form, i.e., as in method=post form action.

 

What needs to be added so that to the receiving file it looks identical to a form submission?

 

<?php 
$siteUrl="http://receivingurl/receive.jsp";

$variablesToPost = array
(
"first_name",
"last_name"

$postData = array();

foreach($variablesToPost as $variable)
{
$postData[$variable]=urlencode($_REQUEST[$variable]);
}

$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $siteUrl);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $postData);
curl_exec ($curl);
curl_close ($curl); 
?>

The process is:

 

form-> intermediate file -> receiving file

 

Since I can't get curl to work, I am trying this code in the intermediate file:

 

<?php
$Url="http://receivingurl.com/receive.jsp"; 

foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) { $Url .="'$key=$value'&"; } 

header ("Location: http://receivingurl.com/receive.jsp"); 
?>

 

However, I still get the same error message indicating that something is missing:

Substituting

header ("Location: $Url"); ?>

results in an error message: "The request contains an illegal URL."

 

What is wrong with my code?

 

 

 

 

[Don Diego]

I have corrected the code to this:

 

<?php
$Url="http://receivingurl.com/receive.jsp"; 

foreach ($_POST as $key => $value)
{ 
$url .="$key=" . urlencode($value) . "&";

} 

header ("Location: http://receivingurl.com/receive.jsp"); 
?>

 

However, I still get the same 500 servlet exception message.

 

What is lacking with this code?
