[thelist] doing http requests using php (without curl?)

[Ben Phillips]

i am trying to carry out a http POST request in the middle of a php
script. this is without using curl as i'm on a shared server.

basically, i need the functionality of HTTP::Request (perl) in php.

any ideas? i hope i'm just overlooking a simple function that allows me
to do this.
