Update Myspace status with CURL


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Logging in:

Code: <?php

class Myspace
{
function login($username, $password)
{
$username = $_POST['user'];
$password = $_POST['passwd'];

$login_url = "https://secure.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=login.process";
$post_data = "ctl00%24ctl00%24cpMain%24cpMain%24LoginBox%24Email_Textbox=$username&ctl00%24ctl00%24cpMain%24cpMain%24LoginBox%24Password_Textbox=$password";

$ch = curl_init($login_url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $login_url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_AUTOREFERER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 10);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS, 10);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2) ");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, "cookie.txt");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,$post_data);


$result = curl_exec($ch);



curl_close($ch);
echo $result;
}
}

if($_POST['user'] && $_POST['passwd'])
{
$login = new Myspace;

echo $login->login($_POST['user'],$_POST['passwd']);

}
else
{
echo
"<html>
<body>
<form action='connect.php' method='POST'>
<input type='text' name='user' /><br />
<input type='password' name='passwd' /><br />
<input type='submit' value='submit' />
</form>

</form>
</body>
</html>";
}

?>
This works fine, the output gives me the main home screen of myspace.


Posting the status:

Code: <?php

class Post
{
function StatusUpdate()
{

$url = "http://home.myspace.com/Modules/PageEditor/Handlers/Home/SaveStatusMood.ashx";
$post_data = urlencode("status=cheeellin&mood=(none)&smiley=http://x.myspacecdn.com/modules/common/static/img/spacer.gif");

$ch = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_AUTOREFERER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 10);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS, 10);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2)");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, "cookie.txt");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,$post_data);


$result = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
echo $result;
}
}

$post = new Post;

echo $post->StatusUpdate();
?>

This is where the problem is. I can't figure out why, but for some reason this will not suffice to bringing about a change in the status of my profile. I'm fairly certain that the cookie is working properly, as viewing the home screen with the sole use of the cookie rather than logging in works fine. Maybe there are more cookie parameters that I am missing which myspace looks for before accepting a status update?


How Myspace handles status updates(XXX = omitted data:)

Code: POST /Modules/PageEditor/Handlers/Home/SaveStatusMood.ashx HTTP/1.1

Host: home.myspace.com

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2) Gecko/20100115 Firefox/3.6

Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8

Accept-Language: en-us,en;q=0.5

Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate

Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7

Cache-Control: no-cache


This is what I found out from firebug. I might just have to inspect the cookies a bit more to make sure there aren't any problems, but other than that I see no reason why the php code shouldn't work, assuming that there is a cookie in the txt file that has not expired before running such code
