stephen, i see you displayed only a little bit of the redirect function.
are you suggesting i omit the rest? also, how do you do a get
request? use the CURLOPT_HTTPGET? oh and one more thing. should this be
a seperate function since you mention i should do the POST as normal?
thanks,ryan

  My recommendation would be to do your first POST request normally,
  then take the data you get and use a little bit of the redir_exec
  function:

  list($header, $data) = explode("\n\n", $data, 2);
  $http_code = curl_getinfo($ch, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);
  if ($http_code == 301 || $http_code == 302) {
  $matches = array();
  preg_match('/Location:(.*?)\n/ ', $header, $matches);
  $url = @parse_url(trim(array_pop($matches)));

  To get the next URL, then just do a while loop, with a cURL GET
  request in it, until there are no more URLs.

  2008/7/7 ryan pal <ryanpal_at_mail.com>:

    i'm trying to figure out how i can do a "post" then a "get". due
    to restrictions on my server, i have to use the redirect script
    found on php.net: function curl_redir_exec($ch,$debug="")
    {
    static $curl_loops = 0;
    static $curl_max_loops = 20; if ($curl_loops++ >=
    $curl_max_loops)
    {
    $curl_loops = 0;
    return FALSE;
    }
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, true);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
    $data = curl_exec($ch);
    list($header, $data) = explode("\n\n", $data, 2);
    $http_code = curl_getinfo($ch, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);
    if ($http_code == 301 || $http_code == 302) {
    $matches = array();
    preg_match('/Location:(.*?)\n/', $header, $matches);
    $url = @parse_url(trim(array_pop($matches)));
    //print_r($url);
    if (!$url)
    {
    //couldn't process the url to redirect to
    $curl_loops = 0;
    return $data;
    }
    $last_url = parse_url(curl_getinfo($ch,
    CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL));
    /* if (!$url['scheme'])
    $url['scheme'] = $last_url['scheme'];
    if (!$url['host'])
    $url['host'] = $last_url['host'];
    if (!$url['path'])
    $url['path'] = $last_url['path'];*/
    $new_url = $url['scheme'] . '://' . $url['host'] .
    $url['path'] . ($url['query']?'?'.$url['query']:'');
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $new_url);
    // debug('Redirecting to', $new_url); return
    curl_redir_exec($ch);
    } else {
    $curl_loops=0;
    return $data;
    } i have my curl_setopt to POST, but need to do GET also. how do
    setup my code so that i post and then do a get for the next few
    redirects?
