Question

I am trying to use PHP Curl to make the registrations of https://www3.gotomeeting.com/register/432624022 automatic.

Based on the corrections made by the folks, this is what I am using:

<?

$array=array(
    'Name_First'=>'Steve',
    'Name_Last'=>'Jobs',
    'Email'=>'[e-mail]',
    'Template'=>'island/webinar/registration.tmpl',
    'Form'=>'webinarRegistrationFo‌​rm',
    'WebinarKey'=>'432624022',
    'ViewArchivedWebinar'=>'false',
    'registrant'=>'',
    'RegistrantTimeZoneK‌​ey'=>'55',
);

function dump($logArray) {
    echo '<pre>';
    print_r($logArray);
    echo '</pre>';
}

function go2webinar($array){

    $url='https://www3.gotomeeting.com/en_US/island/webinar/registration.flow';
    $url1='https://www3.gotomeeting.com/register/432624022';

    $cookie='/therightpath/cookie';
    $query=http_build_query($array);
    $c=curl_init();

    curl_setopt($c,CURLOPT_USERAGENT,'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:9.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/9.0.1');
    curl_setopt($c,CURLOPT_URL,$url);    
    curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION,1);
    curl_setopt($c,CURLOPT_POST,count($array));
    curl_setopt($c,CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,$query);
    curl_setopt($c,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
    curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER,false);
    curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST,0);
    curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE,$cookie);
    curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR,$cookie);
    curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_REFERER,$url1);

    $r=curl_exec($c);//result
    dump(curl_getinfo($c));

    if(curl_errno($c)) return curl_error($c);
    else{
        curl_close($c);
        return trim($r);
    }
}

//GotoMeeting
echo go2webinar($array);

However, I am getting a “Webinar Unavailable” page now…

Answer 1

Here is the working script , I made it too hard coded, but you should get an idea of whats not working.

1. use curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
2. user agent curl_setopt($c,CURLOPT_USERAGENT,'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:9.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/9.0.1');
3. always find the correct params posted , using firebug/tamper data

4. You should post into $url = 'www3.gotomeeting.com/en_US/island/webinar/registration.flow';
   NOT $url1='www3.gotomeeting.com/register/432624022';
   use $url1 as referrer.

   $query=”Template=island%2Fwebinar%2Fregistration.tmpl&Form=webinarRegistrationForm&WebinarKey=432624022&ViewArchivedWebinar=false&registrant=&RegistrantTimeZoneKey=55&Name_First=BobS&Name_Last=Gnoomw&Email=asas%40cc.com&RegistrantTimeZoneKey=55″;

    function curlit(){
   
       $url = 'https://www3.gotomeeting.com/en_US/island/webinar/registration.flow';
       $url1='https://www3.gotomeeting.com/register/432624022';
   
       $mypath = getcwd();
               $mypath = preg_replace('/\\\\/', '/', $mypath);
               $cookie = "$mypath/cookie.txt";
           $query="Template=island%2Fwebinar%2Fregistration.tmpl&Form=webinarRegistrationForm&WebinarKey=432624022&ViewArchivedWebinar=false&registrant=&RegistrantTimeZoneKey=55&Name_First=BobS&Name_Last=Gnoomw&Email=asas%40cc.com&RegistrantTimeZoneKey=55";
           $c=curl_init();
   
           curl_setopt($c,CURLOPT_USERAGENT,'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:9.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/9.0.1');
           curl_setopt($c,CURLOPT_URL,$url);    
           curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
           curl_setopt($c,CURLOPT_POST,count($array));
           curl_setopt($c,CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,$query);
           curl_setopt($c,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
           curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
           curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0);
           curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, $cookie);
           curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, $cookie);
           curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_REFERER, $url1);
           $r=curl_exec($c);//result
           dump(curl_getinfo($c));
   
           if(curl_errno($c)) return curl_error($c);
           else{
               curl_close($c);
               return trim($r);
           }
       }
       function dump($logArray) {
           echo "<pre>";
           print_r($logArray);
           echo "</pre>";
       }
   
       //GotoMeeting
       curlit();
   
       ?>
