    copied!<p>For the basics, I suggest using <a href="http://www.php.net/manual/en/curl.examples-basic.php" rel="nofollow">cURL</a> to access resources by HTTP POST.</p> <p>I put this into a function:</p> <pre><code>function api_call($url,$data,$timeout=20) { $response=false; $ch=curl_init($url); curl_setopt_array($ch,array(CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER=&gt;true,CURLOPT_NOBODY=&gt;false,CURLOPT_TIMEOUT=&gt;$timeout,CURLOPT_FORBID_REUSE=&gt;1,CURLOPT_FRESH_CONNECT=&gt;1,CURLOPT_POST=&gt;true)); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);//this is an array containing the data you're sending them - an associative array describing which call. //data example: //array('operation'=&gt;'user.verify','admin.username'=&gt;'you','admin.password'=&gt;'pass','reseller.id'=&gt;'xxx') $response=curl_exec($ch); $status_code=intval(curl_getinfo($ch,CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE)); curl_close($ch); return array('status'=&gt;$status_code,'url'=&gt;$url,'data'=&gt;$response); } </code></pre> <p>However, you need to supply a URL. Lucanos noted in the comments it is "api.planetdomain.com/servlet/TLDServlet".</p> <p><a href="http://support.planetdomain.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&amp;_a=viewarticle&amp;kbarticleid=77" rel="nofollow">http://support.planetdomain.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&amp;_a=viewarticle&amp;kbarticleid=77</a></p> <p>by the way, I only use cURL for GET requests, so I might be missing some details on how to do a POST right. I tried to fill it in, though.</p> <p>You ask "How can I run a 10 iteration loop, doing a check if domain is available, if it's response is available, then perform the register command and exit the script (using the code provided in thd documentation)."</p> <p>Well, here's some pseudocode mixed with valid PHP. I don't know the domainplanet API as you know, so this will NOT work as is but it should give you a decent idea about it.</p> <pre><code> for($i=0;$i&lt;10;$i++) { //set up the domain check call $domains=array('futunarifountain.co.uk','megahelicopterunicornassaultlovepageant.ly'); $domain_check_call=array('domain.name'=&gt;$domains[$i]); $domain_info=api_call($dp_base_url,$domain_check_call); $info=json_decode($domain_info,true);//IF they use JSON and not XML or something if($info['domain']['status']=='available') { $register_call=something();//make the API calls to register the domain, similar to the above if($register_call['success']){ exit();/*or whatever*/ } } } </code></pre> <p>Hope that helps get you on the right track. </p>
