using php and curl to do an html file post

after scouring the internet to find out how to do multipart post operations and finding nothing nothing, i decided to save someone else some time. the trick is that @ before the file name.

$fullflepath = 'C:\temp\test.jpg';
$upload_url = 'http://www.example.com/uploadtarget.php';
$params = array(
	'photo'=>"@$fullfilepath",
	'title'=>$title
);		

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $upload_url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $params);
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
