PHP + curl, HTTP POST sample code?

Would anyone be able to tell me the best way to do a PHP curl with an HTTP POST?

I need to send information like this:

username=user1, password=passuser1, gender=1


I anticipate that the curl should return a response like result=OK. Are there any examples?

<?php

//

// A very simple PHP example that sends a HTTP POST to a remote site

//



$ch = curl_init();



curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,"<urlexample>");

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,

            "postvar1=value1&postvar2=value2&postvar3=value3");



// In real life you should use something like:

// curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, 

//          http_build_query(array('postvar1' => 'value1')));



// Receive server response ...

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);



$server_output = curl_exec($ch);



curl_close ($ch);



// Further processing ...

if ($server_output == "OK") { ... } else { ... }
