Hello, I'm using php curl on my local machine (winXP), and testing the same
php script at one of my shared hosting accounts (Linux).
It is a post method on a login script, I've been scratching my head for days
and can't seem to find the reason why it will work on one build (Linux -
shared hosting), and not the other (my winXP box).
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
Here are the results of curl_version() on both machines and the php code
follows:
