Hi fellow Curl users,

I'm having trouble getting a particular post to work. The page that I
am posting to by default has very general search results, so I'm trying
to modify the search criteria. The problem is, instead of bringing me
to a new search results page, it just brings me to general default page.
I've gotten posts to work on the same server before, so this is very
confusing.

Below is the specific code I am using for this page. I'm using a cookie
that was previously set, I'm sending MS IE 6 as my agent, and I'm
setting the correct referrer. Also, see below for the header contents
and the output of formfield.pl on this page. Any help is appreciated.

Thank you!

$referer = "http://www5.apa.org/membership/";
$url = "http://www5.apa.org/membership/divroster.cfm";
$postfields = "divnum=12&submit=1divfel=F&divmem=M&divassoc=";

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); // Save to variable
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, $referrer);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1); // Get the header?
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $agent);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "$url");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, "$cookie_jar"); // Save for later
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, "$cookie_jar"); // Now use the
cookie
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1); // Allow redirection?
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "$postfields");
$tmp3 = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
unset($ch);
