Description:
------------
Inserting array (key=>value) as CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS doesn't work although documentation states:

 "This can either be passed as a urlencoded string like 'para1=val1&para2=val2&...' or as an array with the field name as key and field data as value. "

Reproduce code:
---------------
$url="example.php";
$process = curl_init($url);
$data= array ('somefield'=>'somedata')
curl_setopt($process, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
curl_exec($process);
curl_close($process);

Expected result:
----------------
input field "somefield" with value "somedata" posted to example.php

Actual result:
--------------
Empty field/value

You just need to disable the Expect header cURL sends by default:

Sorry, but that doesn't work. 

Note that this is a different problem that the one described on that page.

Works fine for me with both 5.2 and 5.3. What version of libcurl are you 
using?
 [2009-04-06 14:35 UTC] klas at k-k-k dot biz 
I'm using xampp that currently comes with php 5.2.8. and libcurl 7.16.0

Please try a 5.3 VC9 snapshot (using cli, IIS with NTS, or apachelounge.com's apache for the ts version).

You can fetch at http://windows.php.net

sorry, 5.2.9-1 will do it as well :)

Just use http_build_query() to parse array to encode str, that's OK
