How can I make a request with both GET and POST parameters?

Here's an excerpt from Live HTTP headers, I've replaced several values for anonymity.

This request has both GET and POST values. The script on the other end of this is PHP and expects certain values to be in the GET and others to be in the POST.

I know how to issue a GET

curl -G -d "key=val" "http://yadayadayada"

And I understand how to do a POST

curl -d "key=val" "http://yadayadayada"
curl -F "key=val" "http://yadayadayada"

But how do I mix the two in a single request? Every attempt I've made so far has ended in an error.

GET variables can be included in the URL. You just include the GET variables in the query string. For example, if you wanted to send a GET request with "username=fred" to www.example.com/index.php, you would send a simple GET request to "http://www.example.com/index.php?username=fred". So to answer your question, just use the POST method, but have the URL contain your GET data.

To clarify, GET and POST are HTTP request methods, not value types.

• GET variables are called query string parameters. They are part of the URL, and can be included in any request.
• POST variables are the contents of a urlencoded message body. These might also be sent with a PUT request.

Therefore, if you want to send both types of values, send the POST data as normal while explicitly writing your query string.

curl -d "key=val" "http://example.com?query_var=1"
