curl request processing twice?

I am using curl to post to a remote soap server. It works, connects, passes the correct data to the system as i would expect, but for some reason curl is running twice. I have verified that my code is not running twice to trigger it. A single call to curl causes 2 sets of data to go to the soap server. In this case, I am simply adding lead to a lead management system and end up with duplicate leads.

I have read a number of similar questions on other forums and sites, but have not seen a solution.

The remote server is an https connection, but does not require authentication.

Could there be something on the other end causing this?

I have used the exact same code/curl options to connect to many other servers without a problem. So i just wanted to see if any of the experts here had ever encountered this or had any suggestions.

Thanks,

John

Here is some base code with the function that calls curl

<?PHP
function newLead() {

  $soap_request .= "  <soapenv:Header/>\n";
  $soap_request .= "  <soapenv:Body>\n";

Thanks Kravmir. Not sure how I glossed over that, but that indeed was the issue and solved the issue.
