You have to be more specific about what you are trying to do. If you
want to retrieve a webpage using the curl tool it's as simple as

curl http://example.com

save it to a file:

curl -o out http://example.com

Read the manpage [1] and look at the cheat sheet [2]. That website you
linked to suggests using --request (-X) but there's usually no reason
for that [3]. If you need more help after you read all those things ask
the curl tool mailing list curl-users [4].
