It was hard to figure out how to actually post files with this function. The "Array of files to post" is an array of associative arrays, each need the keys "name", "type" and "file". Consider this example code:
<?php
$files = array(
array(
'name' => 'somename',
'type' => 'text/plain',
'file' => $filename
)
);
$http_response = http_post_fields($url, $data, $files);
?>
To use POST to submit a form to a site which requires a cookie for authentication you put the cookie in the $options array. Example:
<?php
$auth="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
$form_url="http://pirates.spy-hill.net/forum_reply.php?thread=663";
$message = "RoboCodeDwarf now has the gold. \n\n";
$message .= "RoboCodeDwarf sez: [quote] " . `fortune -s` . "[/quote]\n";
$form_fields = array(
'content' => $message,
'add_signature' => 'add_it',
'submit' => 'Post reply' );
$form_files=array();
$form_options=array( 'cookies' => array( 'auth' => $auth ) );
$response = http_post_fields($form_url, $form_fields, $form_files, $form_options );
$n = preg_match("/HTTP\/1.1 302 Found/", $response, $matches);
if($n<1) echo "FAILED\n";
else echo "POSTED\n";
?>
comment to wormholio's answer:if you use regular expression, then use it fully:
"/HTTP\/\d\.\d 302 Found/"
Some servers still can use HTTP 1.0
Hear is an axmaple how to arrays as POST varibles:
<?php
$response = http_post_fields('http://example.com/page.php',
array('val[0]'=>'val1', 'val[1]'=>'val2'));
echo "\$response: $response\n";
?>
