Hi Bitcoin-Community,

i think the JSONRPC-PHP Classes are bad to use because of wired error-messages on problems.

So i present my variant to use jsonrpc in php.
[code]
<?php
function my_curl_request($url, $post_data)
{
        $ch = curl_init();
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 'content-type: text/plain;');
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TRANSFERTEXT, 0);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post_data);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXY, false);

        // decode result
        $result = @curl_exec($ch);
        curl_close($ch);

        return json_decode($result, true);
}

// CURL Variant
$url = "http://user:password@127.0.0.1:8332/";

$post_data = array("jsonrpc" => "1.0", "id"=>"curltest", "method"=> "getaccountaddress", "params"=>array(""));
$post_data = json_encode($post_data);
$result = my_curl_request($url, $post_data);
print_r($result)."\n";

$post_data = array("jsonrpc" => "1.0", "id"=>"curltest", "method"=> "getaccountaddress");
$post_data = json_encode($post_data);
$result = my_curl_request($url, $post_data);
print_r($result)."\n";

Array
(
    [result] => xxxxxx5vjjQ4KNP1Ke717qGXWiCCxxxxxx
    [error] => 
    [id] => curltest
)
Array
(
    [result] => 
    [error] => Array
        (
            [code ] => -1
            [message] => getaccountaddress <account>
Returns the current bitcoin address for receiving payments to this account.
        )

    [id] => curltest
)
