> Sometimes when the developer feels the need of grabbing some external content, he would most usually refer to the file_get_contents() function. However, for more complex and sophisticated processes of extracting the client-side code from a page, one might stumble upon using cURL. cURL is a set of functions most of which are used to manipulate resources on an external server.
For those who might struggle downloading it (because there are always such - no fence), just to make it clear:
This array will simulate an HTML form with an input type of text for the name element and one file field from which a user has decided to upload a .php file.
Conclusion:
cURL is pretty much self-explanatory. All function are actual objects and their names correspond to their functionality. Once you perceive how to initiate, define and close a connection, everything else can be found and easily accessed in the documentation of cURL in php.net. Questions or issues with the examples in this tutorial should be posted below. I'll try to troubleshoot if anyone experiences difficulties with it. Thanks for reading!
