Hi Erik, This would be another good use for the <@URL> Metatag.
In your Witango code, just after you do your database Actions - add something like: <@URL LOCATION="http://cgi.domain.com/cgi/subscribe/add_email.cgi"; POSTARGS="Email_address=<@var local$Email encoding=url>&otherarg=<@var local$otherValue encoding=url>"> SP1 is required to make use of the POSTARGS="" attribute and some other helpful features of <@URL> - read the T2K_SP1_WhatsNew.PDF file for more info. Seeing how you maybe doing some special treatment to the data before your second posting, doing the above avoids you having to make another trip to the user's browser to submit the second address. Hope this helps. Cheers...
