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.
