i have server A which must post something to secure server B, and that server B output will take over browser control. i am pursuing SAME EFFECT as if i clicked SUBMIT in this form: <
i need this call to be made automatically -without user clicking- so i use curl to post the data to the sever using https and wait for its output. the output of that call is a new web page with its own links. so i get links & images with its relative path, ie: <
, which is broken !
the URL in the browser is still the calling one. i call curl from php in this way:
$out=`(curl -d ... https... -L)`;
$output=parse($out);
echo $output;
parsing the returned data and prepending missing url can fix some. but some times i won't know how to parse in advance !
how to avoid this ?
is curl the right tool for this purpose ?
thanks
