Will something like this work for you?

<body onLoad="document.form_name.submit()">

This will automatically submit the form when the page loads.

Subject: Submit form results in act_file?


I'm just a first-grader at CF Elementary so forgive me if the question is
too stupid, but...

Is there a way to make CF pass form variables to another page without the
user clicking a forms submit button?

My dilemma: The site I am working on uses VeriSign PayFlow Link to process
it's credit card orders. When it is time to enter credit card info, the user
links offsite to a URL on secure servers at VeriSign. I am supposed to pass
all the customer and order information to the VeriSign URL through form
variables. The obvious method of course is to create a form with hidden
inputs. However, I would like to generate the order number at the very last
second and run a few other queries before submitting the variables to
VeriSign. I can set the VeriSign admin panel to "get" and then pass all
variables in through the query string but it makes for a long URL and it
also makes some merchant account info visible.

Any ideas?
