POST data with PHP only

Question

I have tried to post the following data with PHP without HTML

    <form class="paypal" action="payments.php" method="post" id="paypal_form">
        <input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick" />
        <input type="hidden" name="no_note" value="1" />
        <input type="hidden" name="lc" value="DE" />
        <input type="hidden" name="bn" value="PP-BuyNowBF:btn_buynow_LG.gif:NonHostedGuest" />
        <input type="hidden" name="first_name" value="Customer's First Name" />
        <input type="hidden" name="last_name" value="Customer's Last Name" />
        <input type="hidden" name="payer_email" value="[email protected]" />
        <input type="hidden" name="item_number" value="123456" / >
        <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit Payment"/>
    </form>

What I have tried is:

$response = httpPost("payments.php",
array(
  'cmd'      => '_xclick',
  'no_note'      => '1',
  'lc'      => 'DE',
  'bn'      => 'PP-BuyNowBF:btn_buynow_LG.gif:NonHostedGuest',
  'first_name'      => 'Customers First Name',
  'last_name'      => 'Customers Last Name',
  'payer_email'      => '[email protected]',
  'item_number'      => '123456',
   'submit'      => 'Submit Payment')
);

function httpPost($url, $data){
    $curl = curl_init($url);
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POST, true);
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, http_build_query($data));
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
    $response = curl_exec($curl);
    curl_close($curl);
    return $response;
}

... but this method not works - I only see a white page when I echo the response.
