I need to post values to a server. The server will respond with a webpage. I do not want to read the response and echo to a page. I only want to post and let the server display by itself. "header(location:bla bla)" is a "get" I can't used it. With Curl or pear, I will need to explode the response and display it (is a no,no). Any other suggestions?

Your question is hard for me to parse, although I tried my best and I also edited it for others.
I think what you may be looking for is the following. For example, if you wanted to display a plaintext file directly in the browser:
// Do processing above...
header('Content-Type: text/plain');
echo $text;
exit;
This will have your browser output the data as if it were a text document, not an HTML page.
But, say you want to do something more exotic? Like output a PNG image?
header('Content-Type: image/png');
echo $pngData;
exit;
I hope that helps. Search online for MIME Types to find more of these values for other file types.
