I want to login on pages using curl, which doesn't seem to work for me.
For example I tried to log into fileforum and display the page which loads right after you have logged in. I used this code:
<?
$url = 'http://www.betanews.com/login.php3';
$postfields = 'username=just_testing&password=just_testing'; //Login and password works for real, so you can try it out.

$ch = curl_init();

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $postfields);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);

$return = curl_exec($ch);

curl_close($ch);

echo $return;
?>

Actually I dont get the POST function to work on any page? What is missing?
It would be nice with a working example of php code which uses CURL to login to a page, and displaying that page.
Im using:
Php 4.3.1 with libcurl 7.10.2 & OpenSSL 0.9.7c (win xp)
Thanks.
Anders.
