Tom, Try: http://www.phpbuilder.com/tips/item.php?id=239 There are several pre-made classes at: http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/Networking_Tools/HTTP / Lots of pointers in the comments of the manual: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fsockopen.php Something in the faqts database: http://www.faqts.com/knowledge_base/view.phtml/aid/12039/fid/51 Basically what you do is write all your request headers into a variable and send it to a server using fsockopen(). Cheers, Lauri
