Hi All,
I want to write 2 php file, each on different servers.
as example: i ll pass two values from php1@server1 to php2@server2, and php2 has to return addition of the number to the server1.
how to do that using http or any way by which i can do this?
Please help.

You could use cURL on one server to do a POST to a file the other server , which would receive the POST data and then use it as needed. The second file (or another one) could then send a POST response back to a file on the first server.

Here's an example of how to send POST variables via cURL:

PHP Code:

<?php

 $ch = curl_init('http://somesite.com/index.php');

 curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);

 curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "name=End_User&age=24&city=Seattle");

 curl_exec ($ch);

 curl_close ($ch);

?>

Lots of ways. Here's a simple one since this sounds like homework:

http://server1/php1.php

PHP Code:

$result = file_get_contents('http://server2/php2.php?a=1&b=2'); 

http://server2/php2.php

PHP Code:

echo $_GET['a'] + $_GET['b'];

Just adding another solution

HTTP_Request2

Has docs and examples. Pretty easy to use.
