The easiest way it to perform a redirect. Unfortunately, HTTP allows automatic redirects only for GET requests. But, if you can live with GET, then it is very easy. Fortunately, most web browsers are lax and let you do this. Safari is not, but the warnings are a bit obscure to most users, as a 302 response technically means to repost the data to a new URL - hence Safari's 'do you want to resend this data' question. A 303 response should be used to redirect a POST request. The user is still supposed to be asked if they want to follow the redirect, but I bet most browsers won't, as the specs are ambiguous. -- Phillip Hutchings http://www.sitharus.com/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] / [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

You definitely want to do this on the server side when submitting the form. Since you can call scripts a from action you can call any known method in Python to trigger an HTTP request (- Python's urllib module). -aj pgpdjWTbS4ZVV.pgp Description: PGP signature ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
