cURL

This class is an object oriented wrapper around the PHP cURL extension functions. The cURL extension is often used as HTTP client to access to remote Web pages or Web services via HTTP like those using the SOAP protocol. The class provides functions to set the cURL extension options, execute HTTP requests and retrieve the response headers and bodies. The documentation is embedded in the class source in the PHPDoc format, so it can be extracted and generated with tools that support this format.
