thanks a lot for the tutorial. Since my web server doesn’t have libcurl I wrote the following class using the PEAR package HTTP_request:

private function _executeHttpRequest($request) {
$req =& new HTTP_Request($this->_request_uri);
$req->addHeader(’Content-Type:’, ‘application/xml’);
$req->addRawPostData($request);

$response = $req->sendRequest();

if (PEAR::isError($response)) {
echo $response->getMessage();
} else {
//echo $req->getResponseBody();
return $req->getResponseBody();
}
}

It works quite finde, but I’m having another problem:

When the script asks the server for the current status after 5 seconds, the server returns the error “Cross dependency found in OUTER JOIN; examine your ON conditions” instead of an XML message such as …. I guess it’s got something to do with the database… But despite this error the requested screenshot is shown on the homepage of http://bluga.net/webthumb/.

Does anyone have any idea?

Thanks in advance,

The HTTP class from Manuel Lemos can replace some of the methods used by CURL extension :

The Ister simplexml44 car replace the php5-only SimpleXML extension (needs EXPAT) :

Some reality :

function go()
{
var xhr_object = null;

if(window.XMLHttpRequest) // Firefox
xhr_object = new XMLHttpRequest();
else if(window.ActiveXObject) // Internet Explorer
xhr_object = new ActiveXObject(”Microsoft.XMLHTTP”);
else {
alert(”Navigator don’t support XMLHTTPRequest…”);
return;
}

xhr_object.open(”GET”, http://…, false);
xhr_object.send(null);
if(xhr_object.readyState == 4) alert(”Request Done !”);
}

Thanks a lot…

But i know it uses the curl extension so if you don’t have that, you might be getting an error like that.

On the webthumb server side of things im just recieving http requests and sending reponses.
