php ´emulating´ a html form

marcellus

Dear guys,

I´m trying to make a php script to ´emulate´ a html form...

I have several variables and I want to send it to another page... a coldfusion page.

How can I do it?

Thank´s a lot,

Marcellus

how does coldfusion accepts its variables? via GET or POST?

one thing you could try is to see if you could write the variable contents into a file and let coldfusion parse out this file. In other words you can try to write the file as

//results.txt
question1:blah
question2:blah,blah,some more blah
question3:more yak
... etc

and then have coldfusion parse this.

Yes, but the problem is: I can´t do nothing with the cold fusion page...

The original form will send the variables to my php page.

My script will ´intercept´ the form, register the variables, and, then, send it to the original page ( the cold fusion page )...

Your reply was a little ambigious but judging from what you want, why don't you let PHP write the coldfusion form out for you with your variables already set?

Assuming that your PHP form properly intercepts the variables and modifies them, why don't you overwrite the original coldfusion form with another coldfusion type file written by PHP?

PHP->intercepts form variables
PHP writes a file called "myform.cfml" (coldfusion page) with the form variables intercepted
when customer requests myform.cfml they don't know how that was generated nor do they care--to them its just a cold fusion page, but underneath this particular form was actually written by the underlying PHP script.

I really still don't understand what you want to do. That's the best I can do based on your info. I hope that helps.
