I'm trying to create a script (PHP + cURL) that will go to a website, log
in, navigate to a sub page, fill out a specific form and submit. I was able
to log in and navigate to the form, however when I try to submit any data to
the file specified in the form I get a blank screen so it seems like it
rejects the data. I checked all cookies generated by cURL and I compared
them to cookies created by Firefox (Firebug extension for cookies). They all
look the same. I also double checked all of the $_POST variables. They all
look correct.

I got to the point where I figured that it must be JavaScript code that
creates some variables / cookies on the fly but they don't show up anywhere.
However when I try to submit the form with Firefox and JavaScript turned
off I get the blank screen too.

Any ideas? The variable "com.salesforce.visualforceViewState" is very long.
Can it cause the problem?

preg_match("[com.salesforce.visualforce.ViewState\" value=\"(.*)\"
]U", $content3, $result);

preg_match("[com.salesforce.visualforce.ViewStateMAC\" value=\"(.*)\"
]U", $content3, $result1);
preg_match("[com.salesforce.visualforce.ViewStateCSRF\" value=\"(.*)\"
]U", $content3, $result2);
