POST with PHP.. help

<?

I have a script here,

it posts data to a webserver (running ASP)

The URL is (when reccived at the other server): www.webserver.se/mottag.asp?dest=$dest&text=$text&from=$from
EXAKT like that, the vaules is not extracted from the variable..
I want the URL to be:
www.webserver.se/mottag.asp?dest=JENNY&text=testar&from=070404040404

The values should be generated from a database..

please advice.


function sendToHost($host,$method,$path,$data,$useragent=0)
{
// Supply a default method of GET if the one passed was empty
if (empty($method))
$method = 'GET';
$method = strtoupper($method);
$fp = fsockopen($host,80);
if ($method == 'GET')
$path .= '?' . $data;
fputs($fp, "$method $path HTTP/1.1n");
fputs($fp, "Host: $hostn");
fputs($fp, "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencodedn");
fputs($fp, "Content-length: " . strlen($data) . "n");
if ($useragent)
fputs($fp, "User-Agent: MSIEn");
fputs($fp, "Connection: closenn");
if ($method == 'POST')
fputs($fp, $data);

while (!feof($fp))
$buf .= fgets($fp,128);
fclose($fp);
return $buf;
}
$dest = "JENNY";
$text = "testar";
$from = "070404040404";
$string = "";
sendToHost('www.webserver.se','post','/mottag_sms.asp','dest=$dest&text=$text&from=$from');
?>

sendToHost('www.webserver.se','post','/mottag_sms.asp','dest=$dest&text=$text&from=$from');

Put those in double quotes rather than single quotes:

sendToHost("www.webserver.se","post","/mottag_sms.asp","dest=$dest&text=$text&from=$from");

When you place things in single quotes, variable substitution does not happen. You need to use double quotes for what you want to do...

Your script won't work if you tell it to use "GET", incidentally, since you're still passing in Content-Length.

Moreover, I wouldn't have the caller encode the data, I'd make $data be an array, of var => value, and then walk it, like this:
