cURL is a library which allows you to connect and communicate to many different types of servers with many different types of protocols. Using cURL you can:
- Implement payment gateways’ payment notification scripts.
- Download and upload files from remote servers.
- Login to other websites and access members only sections.
PHP cURL library is definitely the odd man out. Unlike other PHP libraries where a whole plethora of functions is made available, PHP cURL wraps up a major parts of its functionality in just four functions.
