Can PHP CURL work over a multiple page session?

[yllus]

Hey guys,

I'm trying to do something pretty simple. First, use PHP CURL to do a form POST and log in as a member on a website. Next, another form POST again using that authenticated session.

It's supposedly possible, but I haven't seen any documentation as to how. Can anyone point me to some examples on how to do this?

It's certainly possible, check out CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR.

Thanks Crusty, that got me on the right path! Here's the solution for anyone who was wondering.

And apparently the code block of FuseTalk deems carriage returns as unnecessary. 😛
