PHP - Problem With Curl Library, Probably Something Happens In Javascript?

I'm trying to write a script that will copy images from one website (a supplier, in this case puma) and save them to the dealer's web server. I have already done this for other supplier's websites but puma uses png's instead of jpeg's and I believe that is what is causing my issues:

The original image looks like this:


The copied image some odd colors in the background like this:


Here is the code:
Code: [Select]
$puma_image = "http://www.pumab2b.com/_static/images/styleColors/1234560002/" . str_replace(" ", "", $Item_Num) . "_1.png";
$image = imagecreatefrompng($puma_image);

if ($image)
{
//Save image to Soccer Etc server (images folder):
if (imagepng($image, "prod_images/" . $cur_Item['Item_Num'] . ".png", 0))
{
//DO some other stuff here
}
}

I just noticed after posting the original image on this forum, that it is actually transparent. I'm guessing this has something to do with my problems?

I'm trying use curl to login into a page that sets cookies using javascript, but curl doesn't register the cookies.

Is there another way of getting the javascript cookies?

I'm trying to submit to my site using this script that I made:
<?php
session_start();
$title = "<title>CS</title>";
$url =  "http://cheatskape.com/wtag/sendchat.php";
$token = md5(uniqid(rand(), true));
$_SESSION['token'] = $token;
$ch = curl_init(); //Initalize a new cURL session
$name = "PROBLEM";
$msg = "LOL";
$postfields = "token=".$token."&name=".$name."&url=&message=".$msg."";
echo $title; //set the title of the window
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1); //set the type,
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $postfields); //and what fields to use
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);//Set the URL to use
curl_exec($ch); //execute it
echo "<br /><br /><br />"; 
print_r(curl_getinfo($ch)); //Print info of the cURL execution
curl_close($ch); //Close our current cURL session
?>
However, it refuses to post..

What am I doing wrong? This is my first time using cURL

the curl info shows me this:

Hi all,

I am new here and I really thank God that I found this forum! I have read the materials here on working with cURL on javascript-form-submission pages. However, I can't to get my script to work. Can anybody here please help me out or drop me a hint on where to correct my script?

==Situation==

My company utilizes http://www.myfax.com/free/ to send our company faxes. My task is to write a code that would submit files for faxes electronically.

Note: The site also requires e-mail confirmation but I haven't get to that stage yet. I have run tests on submitting fax requests both by code and manually through the site, and have confirmed that the code doesn't work on the submission level because I managed to receive confirmation e-mails for manual submissions. Also, I tried my script with different staff email addresses because I figured out that it blocks only the same e-mail address from sending more than 2 faxes a day.

Code: (php) [Select]
