Thank You.

Example 2 was EXACTLY what I needed (even though all I wanted to do was pass
a set of parms not load a file).

One other query. I seem to remember a site whose function was to display all
the headers being passed. I think it was a security type page whose purposed
was to show all the data being leaked/sent in the headers when you connect.
I would like to see what I ended up sending (as well as all the headers
being sent) so I have a reference to see what the cURL function caused the
browser to send. Cam you refresh my memory by supplying a URL for that site.

Thank You.
