curl_error
Well put, lmshad!
I just added this method:
<?php
// activates POST and set post data
public static function addPostData($data) {
self::$options[CURLOPT_POST] = true;
self::$options[CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS] = $data;
}
?>
curl_exec
(PHP 4 >= 4.0.2, PHP 5)
curl_exec — Выполняет запрос CURL
Описание
Эта функция вызывается после инициализации сеанса и установки всех необходимых параметров. Именна эта функция фактически выполняет требуемую операцию.
Пример #1 Инициализация сеанса CURL и загрузка web-страницы
<?php
// инициализация сеанса
$ch = curl_init();
// установка URL и других необходимых параметров
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://www.example.com/");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
// загрузка страницы и выдача её браузеру
curl_exec($ch);
// завершение сеанса и освобождение ресурсов
curl_close($ch);
?>
Замечание: Если вам нужно, чтобы эта функция вернула результат, а не вывела его в браузер, используйте опцию CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER с функцией curl_setopt().

Great class Roman - just one fix:
Replace the following line:
<?php
if (isset($params['host']) && $params['host']) $header[]="Host: ".$host;
?>
with this:
<?php
if (isset($params['host']) && $params['host']) $header[]="Host: " . $params['host'];
?>
CURL automatically creates the host parameter (since it is required for HTTP/1.1 requests), so you don't need to set it. But if you created a custom host parameter, the above bug would cause a '400 Bad Request' response due to invalid host specified.
Also when copying and pasting the class code, make sure that no line breaks occur (for example in the $header and $user_agent definitions etc.). It will still be valid PHP, but the HTTP request will not be valid, and you may get a '400 Bad Request' response from the server.
It took me a little playing around with an HTTP Sniffer before I finally got an HTTP POST request fully working!
Thanks,
Alan

Note that when you use CURL to POST things....e.g:
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "string=This is a string");
The data part (e.g. "This is a string") inside the 3rd parameter should be applied with urlencode()
Otherwise, if you intend to send a string like "%2F", you will end up with a "/" on the receiving end, which can cause troubles. (e.g. serialize() data cannot be unserialize() becase of the change in string length).

A slightly more efficient way to return the HTTP code would be to use the curl_getinfo function
function getHttpResponseCode($url)
{
$ch = @curl_init($url);
@curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, TRUE);
@curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_NOBODY, TRUE);
@curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, FALSE);
@curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);
$status = array();
$status = @curl_getinfo($ch);
return $status['http_code'];
}

If you use apache2+mod_chroot with php5, add
LoadFile /lib/libnss_dns.so.2
to your mod_chroot config - this should resolver problems.

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION, 1.0);

Thank you for sharing this. I was wondering why my result was 1.
To get around this in a safe way, this is how I check if the result is valid.
$ch = curl_init(); /// initialize a cURL session
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$xmlResponse = curl_exec ($ch);
curl_close ($ch);
if (!is_string($xmlResponse) || !strlen($xmlResponse)) {
return $this->_set_error( "Failure Contacting Server" );
} else {
return $xmlResponse;
}

Be careful when using curl_exec() and the CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER option. According to the manual and assorted documentation:
Set CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER to TRUE to return the transfer as a string of the return value of curl_exec() instead of outputting it out directly.
When retrieving a document with no content (ie. 0 byte file), curl_exec() will return bool(true), not an empty string. I've not seen any mention of this in the manual.
Example code to reproduce this:
<?php
// fictional URL to an existing file with no data in it (ie. 0 byte file)
$url = 'http://www.example.com/empty_file.txt';
$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
// execute and return string (this should be an empty string '')
$str = curl_exec($curl);
curl_close($curl);
// the value of $str is actually bool(true), not empty string ''
var_dump($str);

If you've got problems with curl_exec not working, you should rather check curl_errno and curl_error than using commandline curl, like so:
(since this is easier, and also allows you to check for errors runtime, which is a vital part of any well-design piece of code. ;)
<?php
$creq = curl_init();
curl_setopt($creq, CURLOPT_URL, "http://www.foo.internal");
curl_exec($creq);
/* To quote curl_errno documentation:
Returns the error number for the last cURL operation on the resource ch, or 0 (zero) if no error occurred. */
if (curl_errno($creq)) {
print curl_error($creq);
} else {
curl_close($creq);
}
?>

If your curl installation is not compiled with SSL support you will beat your head against a wall when trying to figure out why curl_exec() is failing to fail or do anything else ...
If you run into a situation where your call to curl_exec is not returning anything you should try the same call with the command line curl

With php 4.3.9 or higher,you can upload file to ftp server on win32 system
<?php
function curl_upload($src) {
$fn = basename($src);
$dest = "ftp://user:passwd@server.com/incoming/$fn";
$ch = curl_init();
$fp = fopen($src,"r");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_UPLOAD, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 300);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLE_OPERATION_TIMEOUTED, 300);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $dest);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_INFILE, $fp);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_INFILESIZE, filesize($src));
curl_exec($ch);
fclose ($fp);
$errorMsg = '';
$errorMsg = curl_error($ch);
$errorNumber = curl_errno($ch);
curl_close($ch);
return $errorNumber;
}
?>
lower version php (I tried on php 4.3.3) on win32 can't do this and may cause php crash even you use CURLOPT_READFUNCTION.

It returns false if there's an error while executing the curl session, no matter how CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER is set.

Checking the source, curl_exec seems to return FALSE on failure, TRUE on success (unless CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER is set 1, and then it returns the returned data).

fyi - if you are having problems getting a
webpage to display in your webpage with
curl_setopt(CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
due to version bugginess perhaps,
you may can use output control functions
like this to show a web page
inside your webpage:
<html><head><title>whatever</title></head>
<body>
<script language="php">
$ch = curl_init("http://www.cocoavillage.com/");
// use output buffering instead of returntransfer -itmaybebuggy
ob_start();
curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
$retrievedhtml = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
// if you intend to print this page with meta tags, better clear out any expiration tag
// $result = preg_replace('/(?s)<meta http-equiv="Expires"[^>]*>/i', '', $retrievedhtml);
// for now I just want what is between the body tags so need
// somehow cut the header footer
$bodyandend = stristr($retrievedhtml,"<body");
// not needed- $positionstartbodystring = strlen($retrievedhtml)-strlen($bodyandend);
$positionendstartbodytag = strpos($bodyandend,">") + 1;
// got to change all to lowercase temporarily
// because end body may be upperlowercasemix
// to bad strirstr does not exist
$temptofindposition=strtolower($bodyandend);
$positionendendbodytag=strpos($temptofindposition,"</body");
//now to get the endbetween body tags
$grabbedbody=substr($bodyandend,
$positionendstartbodytag,
$positionendendbodytag);
//be sure to fix syntax broke by display on phpwebsite... like above line
print("$grabbedbody");
</script>
</body></html>

If You want to hide result which return curl_exec
Use bufeered output.
For example:
-----------------------
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,"http://url.com/index.php");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "a=3&b=5");
//--- Start buffering
ob_start();
curl_exec ($ch);
//--- End buffering and clean output
ob_end_clean();
curl_close ($ch);
------------------
maybe it help somebody :))

If you retrieve a web page and print it (so you can see it in your browser), and the page has an expiration, this expiration now applies to MyProgram.php and next time your program/page is called, even if it's grabbing a different web page, it will show what it just displayed. In Netscape you can get rid of this by going into Edit, Options, Advanced, Cache, and clear out the Disk Cache. But this is really annoying after short order. The following prevents the above scenario:
<?php
function GetCurlPage ($pageSpec) {
$ch = curl_init($pageSpec);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
$tmp = curl_exec ($ch);
curl_close ($ch);
// if you intend to print this page, better clear out expiration tag
$tmp = preg_replace('/(?s)<meta http-equiv="Expires"[^>]*>/i', '', $tmp);
return $tmp;
}
?>
