Well, even if it works on some (or most) browsers, it's not the most wonderful
option.
The best is imho to provide your local url as action. By pressing the submit
button for your remote site you can change the action with javascript. If
javascript is not enabled, you can always check serverside at your local
action if the "remote submit" is pressed and forward the action with the
redirector.
Then it's for the most users very friendly, but with js turned off it still
works.
