Curl SMS	Can't Post

I would like to send SMS using Curl. I have a similar example in PHP but I it is confusing.
I have this

Code

my $url ='http://api/send.php'; 
my $postfields ="DE_LS_IP_ATTM_USER_NAME=testcsr&DE_LS_IP_ATM_USER_PASSW=pass&DE_WEB_COMMAND=login"; print "Testing curl version",WWW::Curl::Easy::version(),"\n";  
 my $curl= WWW::Curl::Easy->new()  
$curl->setopt(CURLOPT_URL, $url); 
						$curl->setopt(CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); 
$curl->setopt(CURLOPT_POST, 1); 
$curl->setopt(CURL_POSTFIELDS, $postfields);  
$curl->setopt(CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 10);

Where is place for recipient phone number? How to insert my message?
Maybe someone have good working example?

I was able to move forward a little

Code

my $postfields =':user=s&pass=S&number=324&text=dfgdfgdf&from=8';  
my $curl= WWW::Curl::Easy->new();  
$curl->setopt(CURLOPT_URL, $url); 
						$curl->setopt(CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); 
$curl->setopt(CURLOPT_POST, 1); 
$curl->setopt(CURL_POSTFIELDS, $postfields);  
$curl->setopt(CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 10); 
 
my $retcode = $curl->perform; 
$curl->urlencode(); 
print $curl->strerror($retcode);

But I get error

Code

Argument "CURL_POSTFIELDS" isn't numeric in subroutine entry at 
	./script.pl line 283 (#2) 
Argument ":user=s&pass=S&number=3&text=d..." isn't

Why are you using WWW::Curl in the first place? Is it just because you found a php example that used it?

I suggest that you use LWP, or WWW::Mechanize if you're doing more complex form posts.

Why Curl? Basically because I have an example php. This is one of the websites running on the server on which the script will go ...
I will look at these suggestions. Probably more support will be needed.
Thanks for now.

Well, since this is perl and not php, I suggest you use the resources I linked to. I believe they'll be much better for you in the end. Come back if you run into any problems.
