Yea, if I understand your query correctly, it's very doable. use curl
extension. Build your header by forming an array, use the implode function
to make the array into an http Header style string, and post it using curl.
I use a simpler function with curl as an alternative to my ajax application,
(for those users with no javascript), for google voice.
HTH, D!J!X!

Subject: stuck on minor php problem
Hi all -- I know someone must have done this, but I have searched the php
docs and can't find a way to submit a form from within an intermediate page.
Someone please tell me this is easy...*smile*
I have a simple form with a submit button that I need to process in an
intermediate CGI file written in php. For reference, the intermediate file
is called nittygritty.php.
It is quite simple -- all I want is to be able to print and email some
things and then automatically submit the requisit form to paypal.
I don't want to present the form to the user as he/she has already entered
the data on a previous page. It is going to be invisible to the user.
The form in nittygritty.php has a form action equal to the paypal page --
that's fine. I also have a bunch of hidden form fields giving relevant
parameters to paypal. I also have the results of the previous page that I
put into the form. Then I have a submit button.
Now I want that form to be submitted to paypal. I can't seem to do it -- do
I have to present the page to the user to press the button again? or is
there a way to send the http header and the parameters to paypal?
I've been hacking this site -- not this particular problem, but the site as
a whole -- since Sunday and I want it to be done tonight. Could someone
knowledgeable of php please enlighten me on form submission.
I did a search on php.net for submit, send, action and a bunch of other
strings. I found some interesting functions, but none what I wanted.
Thanks in advance for any info!
