How can I get a variable from the query string from one post() response and then send it to my next post()? Anyone have any experience with this?
Yes, I have experience doing all sorts of crazy things with HTTP_Client. Usually sessions use cookies, which HTTP_Client handles for you. If it is indeed in a hidden field in the form, then you're going to have to parse out the value and set it yourself in your post request. I suggest using preg_match(). If you need regex help, post the relevant part of the form HTML and we can try to help.
For some reason, this site isn't using cookies for it's sessions, it's passing the id in the query string and through hidden fields. So are you saying that I need to parse through the resulting HTML to pull out the id from a link or something? What if their is not link on the page and it is just a form?
