##
Try changing $str_postdata to an array where field name as key and field
data as value.
ie.
$arr_postdata["submissionType"] = "pd";
$arr_postdata["from_Date_Prj"] = "JUN-2013";
.....
.....
etc...

And remove header 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded'.
##
Compare the cURL request headers with browser request headers.
##
Make sure the /tmp/cookie contains the cookies.

Thank You,
