CURL - Intro PHP supports libcurl, a library created by Daniel Stenberg, that allows you to connect and communicate to many different types of servers with many different types of protocols. libcurl currently supports the http, https, ftp, gopher, telnet, dict, file, and ldap protocols. libcurl also supports HTTPS certificates, HTTP POST, HTTP PUT, FTP uploading (this can also be done with PHP's ftp extension), HTTP form based upload, proxies, cookies, and user+password authentication.

sfCurlRequestHandlerPlugin like sfWebBrowserPlugin proposes an HTTP client capable of making web requests and a mechanism for serializing and unserializing parameters sent in the request and the response.

Main advantage: You can send objects as parameters in the request and get response objects without using SOAP.
