Hey,

        I need to do a HTTP POST to a https:// link, posting several
fields with affiliated values. The destination url is a cgi script which
has some problems with the data, especially with the boundaries as I
assume. As I only transmit data from text fields, the normal post
operation would be sufficient.

I'm initializing curl with following switches:

$ch = curl_init();
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $post_url);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 0);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $postfields);

$postfields is an array, $post_url contains the https://***.cgi link.

Though I set CURLOPT_POST to 1, it still uses multipart/form-data.
I'm using PHP 4.0.6 with curl-ssl-devel-7.9-1rh71.i386.rpm compiled into
PHP using the --with-curl switch.

Any suggestions?
