Your talking about cURL but also talking about doing it in links? Kinda
confused.
If the data is large, it should be in a database or stored in session.
If your just wanting to submit that data to another site then display
results, you can also use sockets and do a manual HTTP request with the
POST data.
The biggest question is why send so much data and not use a form?
