CURL JSON REQUEST AS GET - php

Question

example.com URL
I am calling this url but getting jsonCallback({"ERROR": "6"});. I cannot understand what this is. I have searched many times for the error but could not find out anything helpful.
This is a website by calling this url I will get price list. When I am calling this from the website itself I am getting the data properly. but whenever I a m going to copy the http request and paste it to url it is showing error.
Below are my CURL request :
<?php
class CURL {
var $callback = false;
function setCallback($func_name) {
$this->callback = $func_name;
}
function doRequest($method, $url, $vars) {
$headers=array();
$headerVar=0;
$headers[$headerVar]='Content-Type: text/javascript; charset=UTF-8';
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
//curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, 'cookie.txt');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, 'cookie.txt');
if ($method == 'POST') {
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $vars);
}
$data = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
echo '<br><br>'.curl_error().'-----'.curl_error();
return $data;
if ($data) {
if ($this->callback)
{
$callback = $this->callback;
$this->callback = false;
return call_user_func($callback, $data);
} else {
return $data;
}
} else {
return curl_error($ch);
}
}
function get($url) {
return $this->doRequest('GET', $url, 'NULL');
}
function post($url, $vars) {
return $this->doRequest('POST', $url, $vars);
}
}
function stringParameter($array) {
$post_items=array();
foreach ( $array as $key => $value) {
$post_items[] = $key . '=' . $value;
}
//create the final string to be posted using implode()
$post_string = implode ('&', $post_items);
return $post_string;
}
function build_http_query( $query ){
$query_array = array();
foreach( $query as $key => $key_value ){
if($key_value != ''){
$query_array[] = urlencode($key) . '=' . urlencode( $key_value );
}else {
$query_array[] = urlencode($key) . '=' . $key_value ;
}
}
return htmlspecialchars(implode( '&', $query_array ));
}
list($usec, $sec) = explode(" ", microtime());
$time13 = sprintf('%d%03d', $sec, $usec/1000);
$data =
array(
"brand" => "PERODUA",
"model" => "VIVA 1.0",
"gender" => "Male",
"md_age" => '35',
"marital_status" => "Married",
"car_age" => '8',
"ncd" => '0',
"data" =>
array(
"car_data" => array(
"make"=>"PERODUA",
"model"=>"VIVA 1.0",
"year_of_manufacture"=>"2004",
"offpeak"=>"yes"
),
"drivers_data" => array(
"driver_1"=> array(
"gender" => "Male",
"marital_status" => "Married",
"date_of_birth" => "22/3/1978",
"year_driving_license" => "1999",
"ncd" => "0",
"occupation" => "ZADM: Indoor Office/Exec/Admin Staff",
"relationship" => " "
)
),
"discount_data" => array(
"certificate_of_merit" => false
),
"claims_data" => array(
"have_claims" => "no",
"claims_number" => "0",
"claims_amount" => "0"
),
"product_data" => array(
"plan" => null,
"price" => null,
"policy_start"=> "1/5/2013",
"policy_end"=> "30/4/2014",
"ncd"=> false,
"excess"=> null
)
)
);
$encode = build_http_query($data);
$url = 'https://example.com/price?callback=jsonCallback&'.$encode;
$obj = new CURL();
echo $ppp = $obj->get($url);
?>
Am I am wrong in sending the data in the url as it is written in json?

Answer 1

Try to use build_http_query but http_build_query instead

Answer 2

The {"ERROR": "6"} message is a custom error message return by https://axasingaporemotor.appspot.com/price
You will need to contact the owner of that URL in order to understand what they mean by error 6.
