help

Hi!

Please help!!!

Im using php and Im trying to redirect my users to a new page along
with keeping all of the POST variables...

I tried 2 things

1. Using this echo (below), but I can't figure out how to send along
the post variables..

echo" content='0;URL=http://www.mydomain/myPage.html>Redirecting body>";

-------------

2. Using Curl - note I changed the tunnelling ip address to
xx.xxx.xxx.xxx for this post
but the page doesn't change..

$domain1 = "http://www.mydomain.com/myPage.html";

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt ($ch,CURLOPT_URL,$domain1);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $req);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, Array("Content-Type: application/
x-www-form-urlencoded", "Content-Length: " . strlen($req)));

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE, CURLPROXY_HTTP);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_PROXY, "http://xx.xxx.xxx.xxx:3128");
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_PORT, 80);

$my_curl_result = curl_exec($ch);

Impossible, unless you rely on javascript tricks, at least an external =

redirect.

Forget about this one.

Should work for displaying the page (except for the relative/absolute =

hrefs/src/targets), what do you mean by 'doesn't change'.

Are you sure you want returntransfer?

And why exectly do you need this construct (redirect a post)?

Re: help

I want to redirect a post because Im using "instant payment
notification" from paypal, and I want to send the variables that I
verified on the php page to a java servlet page.

If it's an internal redirect, why don't you write the $_POST variables
to $_SESSION variables, then redirect, then re-access them via the
session? Make sure you use session_write_close() to keep your sanity:

ie

session_start();
$_SESSION['product_name'] = $_POST['product_name'];
$_SESSION['customer_name'] = $_POST['customer_name'];
session_write_close();
header("Location:http://path/to/your/script/");

Re: help

This is very basic and only handles simple array inputs as well as
straight inputs (anything with named elements or multi-dimensional
array POSTs are not covered here), also there is no security measures
(code injection vulnerability?), etc. add validation as needed also
something at this end and the destination to ensure that the data came
from this script would also be a 'good thing'.

Heya, 6e.

CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER causes cURL to return the server response
rather than output it directly. You will probably want to remove that
one from your code.

Also, where do you define $req? Make sure it's URL-encoded.

You can't.

In the script which catches the POST you could convert the POST vars
to GET vars and redirect to the URL with a constructed query, or store
the POST vars somewhere in the session. Regardless, the POST will be
empty in the redirected page.

HTTP redirection was never intended for this kind of purpose - even
when its done properly (the header('location....) function returns a
302 response which is completely wrong for this in HTTP/1.1 and even
if you use a 307 redirect it messes up lots of stuff.

Stop trying to fix the wrong problem.
