PHP/CURL Issues + + 7.1 What is PHP/CURL? + + The module for PHP that makes it possible for PHP programs to access curl- + functions from within PHP. We often call it PHP/CURL to differentiate from + curl the command line tool and libcurl the library. + + 7.2 Who write PHP/CURL? + + PHP/CURL is a module that comes with the regular PHP package.
