Thread: POSTing to a PHP script

I'm having trouble POSTing variables to a PHP script using WinInet. Here is the code:

Code:

hRequest=HttpOpenRequest(hConnect, "POST", "printpostvariables.php" ,
                                  NULL , NULL, NULL, NULL , NULL );
lstrcpy(lpTempBuffer,"message='hello world'&s='2'");
HttpSendRequest(hRequest,NULL,NULL,lpTempBuffer, lstrlen(lpTempBuffer) );

The return codes from the functions are all good. However, in printpostvariables.php, which WILL print any variables sent to it by the POST command, it cannot find the 'message' or 's' variables. Is the format of my buffer incorrect? If not, what IS happening?

It worked! I found some PHP script code that used the POST command to post to ANOTHER PHP script, and I basically copied their headers and included them. Here is the code:

Code:

lpHeaders[0]=0;
lstrcat(lpHeaders,"Accept: */*\r\n
lstrcat(lpHeaders,"Accept-Language: en-au\r\n
lstrcat(lpHeaders,"Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n
lstrcat(lpHeaders,"User-Agent: BenNet\r\n
lstrcat(lpHeaders,"Connection: Keep-Alive\r\n
lstrcat(lpHeaders,"Cache-Control: no-cache\r\n\r\n");
lstrcpy(lpTempBuffer,"message=helloworld&s=2");

That CProg interface will be up and running in no time. Thanks for the help.
