Well, to get CURL support in PHP, you need to get two things properly built
(apart from PHP itself):
1. The curl library (libcurl)
2. The CURL glue module
I don't know how things work out in the win-version of PHP, but in the unix
version you have to run configure with the '--with-curl' option to have
number (2) fixed. This would also require that you already have (1) compiled
and installed.

Me neither. This is a PHP building issue. It is important though that you
have the libcurl built and used when you buld the php_curl module. At least
if libcurl.lib is a static lib.

No, that's the wrong DLL. php_curl.dll is probably (2) or perhaps both (2)
and (1) but it is certainly not only the curl lib.

I'd guess that you're better off asking this in a win-php forum, but I
wouldn't know. Any friendly soul in here with some knowledge in this area?
