Question

Why is $email and $pass not printing out, they are posting as empty.
I’m getting the following results from print_r()

    [email] => 
    [password] =>

Below is my code. What am i doing wrong

<?php
$email = $_POST["data[User][email]"];
$pass = $_POST["data[User][password]"];
$base = 'https://api.whatever.com/Api?';

$params = array(
    'Format' => 'json'
    ,'email' => "$email"
    ,'password' => "$pass"

);

$url = $base . http_build_query( $params );
$result = file_get_contents( $url );

echo '<pre>';
print_r( json_decode( $result ) );
echo '</pre>';
?>

Extending from comment:

If you post something like

<input name="data[User][email]" value="[e-mail]" />

You’ll have to use

$_POST["data"]["User"]["email"]

to retrieve corresponding value.
