RE: [PHP] A quick question - Help Please !

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. --- "Trout, Travis" <ttrout@mobileregister.com> wrote: > When you submit, does the form call a php self function or are you calling a > file on the remote server?
