I am trying to use curl to post data to a search engine and then
return the results in a variable so I can manipulate it.
I have tried this but it does not seam to work properly.
This is just an example of how I am trying to do this I don't have
to use google for the search engine just thought if I can get it
working with this I can get it to work with others
$ch = curl_init ("http://www.google.com/";);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
$word="php";
$args="action=/search&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=$word&btnG=Google Search";
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $args);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
$data = curl_exec ($ch);
curl_close ($ch);
echo $data;
There does not seam to be much info or examples on using curl with php
is there anyplace that you know of that has more info than the manual
