I am trying to grab data from a website which uses jQuery behind an expand button (+).
Using Http header, I see it's a POST with a simple URL, with nothing else sent (not that I can see):

http://example.com/abc.jhtml?action=getValue&itemValue=ding&sCode=733-081&time=new%20Date()

So I use curL in php:

$date=date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
$myURL="http://example.com/abc.jhtml?action=getValue&itemValue=ding&sCode=733-081&time=".urlencode($date);
$ch = curl_init();	
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $myURL);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_POST, 0);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, TRUE);
$content=curl_exec($ch);
echo $content;

I end up getting this line:

{"result":{},"status":"fail","code":0,"msg":"server busy, try again!"}

what did I do wrong? anybody can help?
thanks

That doesn't look like you've done anything wrong in your PHP but that's just a server response.

What is the code behind on the server?

hmm.. direct access of the url http://example.com/abc.jhtml gives 404, and http://example.com/a...action=getValue gives me the same results {"result":{},"status":"fail","code":0,"msg":"server busy, try again!"} so the info I passed was no better than nothing..

404 is not the same as a JSON response.

A 404 is triggered (generally) from the server, and the JSON is from the application.
