How to remove HTTP headers from CURL response?

Question

I have a php script that returns just plain text without any html. Now I want to make a cURL request to that script and I get the following response:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Mon, 28 Feb 2011 14:21:51 GMT Server: Apache/2.2.14 (Ubuntu) X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.12-nmm2 Vary: Accept-Encoding Content-Length: 6 Content-Type: text/html  6.8320 

The actuall response is just 6.8320 as text without any html. I want to retrieve it from the response above by just removing the header information.

I already minified the script a bit:

$url = $_GET['url'];  if ( !$url ) {    // Passed url not specified.   $contents = 'ERROR: url not specified';   $status = array( 'http_code' => 'ERROR' );  } else if ( !preg_match( $valid_url_regex, $url ) ) {    // Passed url doesn't match $valid_url_regex.   $contents = 'ERROR: invalid url';   $status = array( 'http_code' => 'ERROR' );  } else {   $ch = curl_init( $url );    if ( strtolower($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD']) == 'post' ) {     curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_POST, true );     curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $_POST );   }    curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true );   curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, true );   curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true );    curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $_GET['user_agent'] ? $_GET['user_agent'] : $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'] );    list( $header, $contents ) = preg_split( '/([\r\n][\r\n])\\1/', curl_exec( $ch ), 2 );    $status = curl_getinfo( $ch );    curl_close( $ch ); }  // Split header text into an array. $header_text = preg_split( '/[\r\n]+/', $header );  if ( true ) {   if ( !$enable_native ) {     $contents = 'ERROR: invalid mode';     $status = array( 'http_code' => 'ERROR' );   }    // Propagate headers to response.   foreach ( $header_text as $header ) {     if ( preg_match( '/^(?:Content-Type|Content-Language|Set-Cookie):/i', $header ) ) {       header( $header );     }   }   print $contents; } 

Any idea what I need to change to remove the header information from the response?

Just set CURLOPT_HEADER to false.
