This re-publishes a Layer when the user adds (or deletes) a polygon - it is using WFS-T to add the data to the database from the browser.
Protocol Transactions can be found here:
http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/wfs-protocol-transactions.js
You have to make sure to set the HTTP Content-Type/Content-Length headers:
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-Type: text/xml', 'Content-Length: '.strlen($post)));
In this case, the value of Content-Length would be the size of your XML request.

Geoserver REST API can be constructed using
Path GET (read) POST (create) PUT (update) DELETE (delete)
http://geoserver.org/display/GEOS/User+Collaboration+REST+API
for selecting a SLD you need to GET {yourserver} {port} {user} {password}
/geoserver/rest/styles (exists already in rest api)
