Hello, I am in the process of learning PHP CURL and in doing some test
examples I am having some issues with CURL that I do not fully
understand.
I am doing a test to use CURL to post and return results from
"http://powersports.honda.com/dealer_locator/dealer_locator.asp"
However it does not appear to be returning results from the CURL post
action. What CURL appears to be doing is finding the page
"http://powersports.honda.com/dealer_locator/dealer_locator.asp",
becasue I can wirte any portion of the page to a file with fwrite after
curl_exec($ch);, but I can not see the redirected page after a post is
done to retrun the results via fwrite. I have CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION,
true so it should be finding the redirected pages.
The same code works fine if I just change $data to zip= for
"http://www.suzukicycles.com/DealerLocator/".
Can some help on why the below code may not be working on
"http://powersports.honda.com/dealer_locator/dealer_locator.asp" and
what I can do to get it working or how to go about debugging this so
that I can figure out why it is not working?
You can see the one that is working here:
// this is for suzuki
http://www.subdomain.tetrahost.net/test/test4.php
Your help is much appreciated. This one is driving me crazy.
Thank you!
