Re[2]: [PHP] witing for a post

Sorry Jack - thanks for the answer... I probably didn't explain it correctly. From page A users have a link to reach the gateway (via POST) leaving my site (this opens a new browser page). As soon as they leave the site, page A changes to another page let's say B. The URL of page B is what I pass to the gateway to have the answer back. Users, once reached the gateway, application fill in their data and the payment is processed. A confirmation/denegation page is shown and that's it. So page B should "wait" there for the gateway's answer... for example reloading every x seconds using a Javascript REFRESH or something like that. The script will process what in HTTP_POST_VARS... while waiting B will output something like "Processing you payment.." and when it receives the answer from the gateway it must update some database table and display a final confirmation or output a "transaction not successful".
