Re: [PHP] submitting a form to multiple places!!!
Here's what I do. We have an outsourced email newsletter management system that accepts GET method - so I just use fopen() to send the data to our list management system and then drop the information into a database on our server. $form1_submit_url = 'http://www.whatever.com/page.htm?something=123something=456'; $fp = fopen (c:\\data\\info.txt, r); - then my script continues to insert info an output confirmation message olinux --- Henry [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi All, I have a problem that I hope you can help me with. I'm using a third party shopping cart solution which is quite frankly naff. They bundle some autoresponders with it. Unfortunately the autoresponders do not work!. I want to find a temporary solution to this. The easiest way would be to allow a form to be submitted to more than one place! Basically I would lke to have an intermediate php page that will submit the details (submitted to it) to two other pages and then follow the response of one of those other pages (the primary page). That way I can insert a different autoresponder handling system into the submission process but continue to use the shopping carts pages for the time being. Any suggestions?

If you need something more complex look into CURL as suggested earlier http://curl.haxx.se/ http://www.php.net/curl olinux --- olinux [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Here's what I do.

Re: [PHP] submitting a form to multiple places!!!
Don't think it can be done... at least not the way you describe. *maybe* it can be done with javascript, but I'd try to do it this way: 1. user completes form, clicks submit 2. your scripts don't send any output to the browser (ie, it's not a page, it's a script), generate the auto-responders, whatever else, and redirect to the other script. 3. other script takes the data, does what it does, and user gets a response in the browser. You will probably run into trouble with this because the second form requires information to be sent by POST method... I think the CURL library can do this for you, or else, it's been discussed on this list 1000's of times. Search the archives.
