Posting data back and forth php files on different servers

[m002.p]

Hello,

I have recently made a rather large script for gamers to manage banned players they come across etc for easier future reference.

Now due to the time and effort ive spent on this, I am asking those who want a copy for a small fee to help with my future support on the mod.

To stop copyright infringement and distributing to others without purchasing a serial, ive managed to code a way of posting data from the script to my main database on my server using the php $_POST variables.

However with that said, I can now check my database to ensure I keep track of those using my script.

Now to the point, I can post data to my server, but I am having trouble posting it back or working out how to. I want to post back update notifications to the script as well as a few things that will alert the user if they are not using a purchased script.

Any ideas what the best way is of posting data from my server to the script on the clients?

I have been told CURL can be used etc but POST only works one way as you then cant post data back again as it causes a massive loop of non stop transfers.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Matt

Basically, you can use cURL to access a certain PHP page on your server. This PHP file should output whatever you need. The script that requested this page will receive that output in return.

Hi Dismounted, have you any examples as ive searched google to no avail.

A tutorial you may know of would help instead if not.

I just searched Google, and a relevant result came right up. Search "curl php" (without quotes).
