My Spammers not showing my submissions

Hi all,

Really great service this. I've made a plugin for HotaruCMS.org, but I'm struggling at the last hurdle.

Using the API, I submit the spammers details, but he doesn't show up in My Spammers. I've used two different HTTP classes and both return "success". Here's the function I'm using:

    /**
     * Add spammer to the StopForumSpam.com database
     */
    public function addSpammer($ip = '', $username = '', $email = '', $apikey = '')
    {
        if (!$ip || !$username || !$email || !$apikey || $ip == '127.0.0.1') { return false; }
        
        $url = "http://www.stopforumspam.com/post.php?";
        $url .= "username=" . urlencode($username);
        $url .= "&ip_addr=" . $ip;
        $url .= "&email=" . urlencode($email);
        $url .= "&api_key=" . $apikey;
        
        echo $url . "<br />";
        
        /*
        // Old method:
        require_once(EXTENSIONS . 'SWCMS/class.httprequest.php');
        $r = new HTTPRequest($url);
        $error = $r->DownloadToString();
        if (!$error) { echo "Success"; } else { echo $error; }
        */
        
        // New method:
        // http://www.phpfour.com/blog/2008/01/php-http-class/
        require_once(EXTENSIONS . 'http/class.http.php');
        $http = new Http();
        $http->execute($url);
        if (!$http->error) { echo "Success"; } else { echo $http->error; }
        
        exit;
    }

And here's the (edited) output:

http://www.stopforumspam.com/post.php?u … y=blahblah
Success

Maybe there's just a delay? Can you spot anything odd, or do we need to delve into the classes I'm using?

Thanks guys!
Nick.

Change post.php to add.php

Youre passing GET url params to a php file that only accepts POST data

if you wish to POST data to post.php, here is a function that will allow you do it without too much trouble

As your class appears (from what I can see) to return a true/false as to the result of the class being able to connect to our site, then your function works, however the post page just exits(); when no post data is found.

<?php
function file_post_contents($url,$headers=false) {
    $url = parse_url($url);

    if (!isset($url['port'])) {
      if ($url['scheme'] == 'http') { $url['port']=80; }
      elseif ($url['scheme'] == 'https') { $url['port']=443; }
    }
    $url['query']=isset($url['query'])?$url['query']:'';

    $url['protocol']=$url['scheme'].'://';
    $eol="\r\n";

    $headers =  "POST ".$url['protocol'].$url['host'].$url['path']." HTTP/1.0".$eol.
                "Host: ".$url['host'].$eol.
                "Referer: ".$url['protocol'].$url['host'].$url['path'].$eol.
                "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded".$eol.
                "Content-Length: ".strlen($url['query']).$eol.
                $eol.$url['query'];
    $fp = fsockopen($url['host'], $url['port'], $errno, $errstr, 30);
    if($fp) {
      fputs($fp, $headers);
      $result = '';
      while(!feof($fp)) { $result .= fgets($fp, 128); }
      fclose($fp);
      if (!$headers) {
        //removes headers
        $pattern="/^.*\r\n\r\n/s";
        $result=preg_replace($pattern,'',$result);
      }
      return $result;
    }
}
?>

I changed post.php to add.php and it worked fine. Thank you very much for your help!

FYI... the example on the page http://www.stopforumspam.com/apis shows post.php instead of add.php.
