Michael,

Great question.

I compare line by line the output of Live Headers to the curl verbose. I do character by character comparison of the POST string. Like Daniel replying yesterday, the post string may not be encoded correctly.

This and your code tells me you're still trying to find a shortcut with followlocation.

Until you compare the 2 outputs (on paper, side by side) and make your script so that the verbose output mimics the FULL output of Live Headers, you may not find success for a long time. I would generate the code with multiple curl_exec (maybe 4 or more) changing the curlopt.... target, referer and post (T/F), etc to make the script request and get each page you see in Live Headers. It will lengthen your code, but probably shorten your time to success.

I can't be of any more assistance in this part of the matter.

David
