passing FORM values from page to page ?

[Anon]

Is there an easy way to do the following?

I want to write a little script that get called as the action value when a form is submitted. My script will check to see if the "add me to the newsletter" box is set. Then I'll do some newsletter processing.

Then the tricky part ....... I want to call pass all of the POST data from the form to another script (the one that processes all of the form data other than the newsleter signup).

Basically, I want to get in the middle and see if the submitter wants to be added to the newsletter mailing list.

just pass the variables as hidden in the form after you've investigated the rest.

<input type=hidden name=$var value=$var>

I think you're saying that I should read in all the POST data, deal with adding the user to the newsletter, and then write out a form with all the POST values rewritten as hidden fields and then require the user to hit another "submit" button ?
There has to be a simpler way. I did something like this once before in perl but it was a hack job. I passed back all the parms in the query_string .

make the form to load the same page when the submit button is pressed, ie,

<form action='<?php echo $PHP_SELF; ?>' >

and then when the page is reloaded do whatever you want with the variables and then 'include' the next page, so that page will receive the same variables.

Can anyone elaborate on this suggestion? How would I "include" the original page and have it submitted automatically? Or are you suggestind to have the user hit submit a second time ?
