Claude, besides the other useful info from folks, note as well that you need
to be sure to do a method="post" on the CFHTTP, since this is a form
submission. And if you need to pass in form data, you need to do that with
CFHTTPPARAM type="formfield". And if you want to pass in the needed
sessionid tokens, you would use type="cookie". For more, see the CFML
reference, which has a real example of such a form post, at
http://www.cfquickdocs.com/cf9/#cfhttpparam.

Subject: [cfaussie] Using CFHTTP

 

Hi,

 

I am trying to dynamically submit data to an external website that required
me to log into the admin of the site to manually submit data

 

I am able to successfully create a form page and submit the form to the path
of the external site and the form data submits successfully with the form
data being submitted  being added to the external sites database as required

 

When I try and e cfhttp so the posting of the form data occurs in the
background without the screen loading the external sites page does not work
however the cfhttp code passes successfully naturally I am using the same
url in the form page as I am in the cfhttp tag.

 

Any suggests why this would not work would be appreciated

 

Regards
