curl_exec
(PHP 4 >= 4.0.2)
curl_exec -- Perform a CURL session
Description
mixed curl_exec ( resource ch)
This function should be called after you initialize a CURL
session and all the options for the session are set. Its
purpose is simply to execute the predefined CURL session
(given by the ch). Example 1. Initializing a new CURL session
and fetching a webpage
<?php
// create a new curl resource
$ch = curl_init();
// set URL and other appropriate options
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://www.example.com/");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
// grab URL and pass it to the browser
curl_exec($ch);
// close curl resource, and free up system resources
curl_close($ch);
?>
Note: If you want to have the result returned instead of
it being printed to the browser directly, use the CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER
option of curl_setopt().
