Where do you want the output of the POST request to go? A) Back to your
tcl script or B) direct to the user's browser?
Where do you want to make this POST request to? C) To any arbitrary
webserver or D) to your webserver only?
A) && C) => use util_httppost from the OpenACS toolkit
B) && C) => screwed (or use util_httppost and then send that output back
yourself)
D) => use Rob Mayoff's internal redirection module (www.dqd.com)
