PHP function to connect to pingomatic using cURL

I'm creating a PHP function to connect to pingomatic using CURL but the response is always.

Array ( [EXE] => XML-RPC server accepts POST requests only. )

here is my sample code...

function curl_getpage2($url,$data, $referer = null, $agent = null, $header = null, $timeout = 20, $proxy = null, $proxy_username = null, $proxy_password = null) {
 //getProxy();
 if ($agent == null) {
     $agent = getAgent();
 }

 if ($referer == null) {
     $referer = getHost($url);
 }
 if (!is_array($header)) { 
  $header = array("Content-Type:text/xml","Host:".getHost($url),"User-Agent:$agent",
   "Accept:text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8",
   "Accept-Language:en-us,en;q=0.5",
   "Accept-Encoding:gzip,deflate",
   "Accept-Charset:ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7",
   "Keep-Alive:300",
   "Connection:keep-alive",
   "Cache-Control:max-age=0",
   "Content-length: ".strlen($XML));
 }

 if($proxy == null){
     $proxy = "208.100.27.155:60099";
 }

 if($proxy_username == null && $proxy_password == null){
     $proxyUnPW = "unproxy:pwproxy";
 }else{
     $proxyUnPW = $proxy_username.":".$proxy_password;
 }

 $ch = curl_init();
 curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
 curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
 curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
 curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
 curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
 curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $dat开发者_运维知识库a);
 curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER,$header);
 curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXY, $proxy);
 curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD,$proxyUnPW);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPPROXYTUNNEL, 1);

        //curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $agent);
 //curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, $timeout);
        //curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, $referer);
 //curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, TRUE);
 //curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_AUTOREFERER,TRUE);
 //curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS, 10);
 //curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, '/tmp/cookies.txt');
 //curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, '/tmp/cookies.txt');
 //curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE);       
 //curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 2);

        $result['EXE'] = curl_exec($ch);
        //$result['INF'] = curl_getinfo($ch);
        //$result['ERR'] = curl_error($ch);

        curl_close($ch);

        return $result;
}

I need some help here. I'm just somewhat new to PHP.

You can submit your site once via the web form and then call a GET request for that url (see question How to ping automatically to pingomatic in PHP?).

So your URL would be something like the following if you want to ping all services (title and url encoded with urlencode()):

$url = 'http://pingomatic.com/ping/?title='.$title.'&blogurl='.$url.'&rssurl=&chk_weblogscom=on&chk_blogs=on&chk_feedburner=on&chk_newsgator=on&chk_myyahoo=on&chk_pubsubcom=on&chk_blogdigger=on&chk_weblogalot=on&chk_newsisfree=on&chk_topicexchange=on&chk_google=on&chk_tailrank=on&chk_skygrid=on&chk_collecta=on&chk_superfeedr=on');

eg:

http://pingomatic.com/ping/?title=Example%20Title&blogurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.example.com%2F&rssurl=&chk_weblogscom=on&chk_blogs=on&chk_feedburner=on&chk_newsgator=on&chk_myyahoo=on&chk_pubsubcom=on&chk_blogdigger=on&chk_weblogalot=on&chk_newsisfree=on&chk_topicexchange=on&chk_google=on&chk_tailrank=on&chk_skygrid=on&chk_collecta=on&chk_superfeedr=on
