Hi :

How do I simulate a POST request using the
"header()" function?


Thank you very much.

header(); in PHP is for the output header.
It cannot be used to create a POST type HTTP request.

you must use socket(); or the CURL to have your PHP script do an HTTP POST
style request.
There are some samples on the PHP site in the socket and curl sections of
the manual.

Are you basically trying to make the client side auto-submit a form? You
can do that easily enough, without the header() function.

Just build a form with a tag at
the top, and a form with all the data you need in hidden fields and a post
method.
