I have to send a form with a whole bunch of hidden fields and form fields to the 
remote server.  I
have tried sending via CURL, until I remembered that they still have to input the cc 
information,
so that was out, and then I tried doing PHP_SELF and then if the $submit then send 
email and do a
header("Location :  redirect to the payment process with name value pairs");  for some 
reason it
either didnt like the name value or it couldnt see that the form was being submitted 
from
order.php.
