I'm trying to make this to work, but it only works if I remove the two lines that are commented out. If I enable it stops working with a Error 404 (Not Found). Why?

Thanks in advance.

$headers = [

    'Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/avif,image/webp,image/apng,*/*;q=0.8,application/signed-exchange;v=b3;q=0.9',

$url = $_POST['URL'];   

$ch = curl_init();

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);

//curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/91.0.4472.124 Safari/537.36');

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, 'http://www.google.com');

//curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);

$get = curl_exec($ch);

My Answer:
The issue you are facing could be due to the way you are setting the CURLOPT_REFERER and CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER options in your cURL request.

When you set the CURLOPT_REFERER option, you should use CURLOPT_REFERER instead of CURLOPT_REFERER. So the correct way to set the referer header would be:

php
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, 'http://www.google.com');


Similarly, when setting the CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER option, you should use CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER instead of CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER. So the correct way to set the headers would be:

php
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);


By making these changes, your cURL request should work as expected with the user agent and custom headers included.
