   (PHP 4 >= 4.0.2)
   curl_init -- Initialize a CURL session

Description

   resource curl_init ( [string url])

   The curl_init() will initialize a new session and return a CURL handle
   for use with the curl_setopt(), curl_exec(), and curl_close()
   functions. If the optional url parameter is supplied then the
   CURLOPT_URL option will be set to the value of the parameter. You can
   manually set this using the curl_setopt() function.

   Example 1. Initializing a new CURL session and fetching a webpage
   <?php
   $ch = curl_init();
   curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://www.example.com/");
   curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
   curl_exec($ch);
   curl_close($ch);
   ?>
