Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce
this bug ourselves. 

A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>,
is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external 
resources such as databases, etc.

If possible, make the script source available online and provide
an URL to it here. Try avoid embedding huge scripts into the report.

No feedback was provided. The bug is being suspended because
we assume that you are no longer experiencing the problem.
If this is not the case and you are able to provide the
information that was requested earlier, please do so and
change the status of the bug back to "Open". Thank you.

This Works
<?php
	$addpage = curl_init('http://localhost/updateindex.php');			
	$page = curl_exec($addpage);
	curl_close($addpage);
	echo "$page";
?>

The following don't work.

<?php
	$addpage = curl_init('/updateindex.php');			
	$page = curl_exec($addpage);
	curl_close($addpage);
	echo "$page";
?>

<?php
	$addpage = curl_init('updateindex.php');			
	$page = curl_exec($addpage);
	curl_close($addpage);
	echo "$page";
?>

<?php
	$addpage = curl_init('./updateindex.php');			
	$page = curl_exec($addpage);
	curl_close($addpage);
	echo "$page";
?>

Those are not supposed to work.  curl_init() takes a URL.  None of the arguments 
in your example that don't work are URLs.

I guess that makes sence.

But is there anyway to curl or any way to http post to a completely offline page?

The following script might help those who would wish to use a relitive url.  It takes the url of the current script and chops off the file name giving you the CWD from the server point of view.

<?php
	$backwards = strrev($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);	// Get the CWD form the web point of view.
	do
	{
		$char = substr($backwards, 0, 1);
		$backwards = substr($backwards, 1);
	} while (!( $char == '/' )) ;
	$dir = "http://$_SERVER[SERVER_NAME]" . strrev($backwards);
?>

then you would use
curl_init($dir/script.php);
