Heya, R. Soler. Welcome to TSDN!

Please use CODE tags when posting source code. See the REPLY GUIDELINES on the right side of the page next time you post.

Changed thread title to better describe the problem (did you know that threads whose titles contain phrases such as, 'problem' actually get FEWER responses?).

What do you want your code to do? Give an example.
What is your code doing that you don't want it to do? Give an example.
What is your code *not* doing that it is supposed to? Give an example.

THANKS FOR YOUR SUGGESTIONS

The code is supposed to bring back the values used later to proccess instead when used from proxy call returns

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> 
- <rsp stat="fail">
  <err code="112" msg="Method "unknown" not found" /> 
  </rsp>

if i take out the proxy call and execute directly the response is

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> 
- <rsp stat="ok">
- <photos page="1" pages="122112" perpage="5" total="610558">
  <photo id="1069021419" owner="10984112@N05" secret="c044986b55" server="1140" farm="2" title="narnia - up close and personal" ispublic="1" isfriend="0" isfamily="0" latitude="-17.918" longitude="25.782833" accuracy="16" />

Heya, R. Soler.

Try urlencode()ing the URL before sending it to your PHP proxy page.

E.g.:
http://site.com/Proxy1.php?url=http%3A%2F%2Fflickr.com%2Fservices% 2Frest%2F%3Fmethod%3Dflickr.photos.search%26tags%3 Dgeotagged%26tag_mode%3Dall%26per_page%3D5%26page% 3D1%26extras%3Dgeo%26bbox%3D-180%252C-90%252C180%252C90%26api_key%3D82831e02041ba02034cb a9a3fb362e8b

Instead of:
http://site.com/Proxy1.php?url=http://flickr.com/services/rest/?method=flickr.photos.search&tags=geotagged&tag_mo de=all&per_page=5&page=1&extras=geo&bbox=-180%2C-90%2C180%2C90&api_key=82831e02041ba02034cba9a3fb36 2e8b
