Responding from i5 using curl is difficult where https is involved.
But Scott's API provides a ...post_raw procedure which should allow you to build a string of all 3 form variables using a based variable that avoids the compiler restriction on variable length.

They're using curl_exec and a few curl_setopt functions to build it up in memory.
$ch = curl_init ($urltopost);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $datatopost);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$returndata = curl_exec ($ch);
This piece is not a big deal.
We don't have PHP on the iseries, so it has to go through RPG. I have your LIBHTTP on the system now. Just trying to link it all together.

Hello,
The sample code you provided just creates an array in a PHP script. It does not send it anywhere... presumably, there's code later in the program that does the actual POST.
Can you show us that code? That will help me understand what this is doing.
