Parse error: parse error, unexpected '=' in /var/ on line 88

There are two fundamental ways for PHP to send data to another
CGI via the POST-method: CURL and fopen.
Where CURL is the easier of the two, fopen is more commonly available.
Check the output of phpinfo() to see whether CURL is available on your system.

This method uses CURL to contact the server.
