  <p>I'm sure there is some simple way to do this. I need to pass get variables through to my cart software to record a conversion, but not redirect the user, I just want the server to send GET variables to a URL. I'd rather not turn on allow_url_fopen in php.ini. </p>
  
  <p>Anyone know the best way to do this? Thanks in advance.</p>
