Re: submit form values to new site after validation

It would be better if there was some sort of secure socket to transfer the data through. -- phill "Tom Beidler" <tom@orbittechservices.com> wrote in message news:B704A1C2.1DE4%tom@orbittechservices.com... > I'm trying to modify and e-commerce site which originally sent an email with > the credit card info in an email.
