pass form data to MS Frontpage?

Anon

I need to do something that should be fairly simple but I can find any discussion of how to do it anywhere. Here's what I want/need to do:

We have a lot of forms on our site that use MS Frontpage. We need to add a checkbox to these forms that asks the user if they want to sign up for our monthly newsletter.

I'd like to have my script be called from the form, see if the newsletter box is clicked , if yes .... send an email to our listserver, then PASS THE FORM DATA TO THE SCRIPT THAT WAS ORIGINALLY SUPPOSED TO BE CALLED (Frontpage in this case)
Can any describe how to pass the form data on to MS Frontpage ?

Myself, I use the cURL functions, because I have cURL installed, but you should be able to get by with the fsockopen() function; the difference is that with the latter you've got to build up the headers by hand.

Once you've made a socket connection to the Frontpage script, you can use the file functions to send it exactly what it would have received in the first place if the PHP script hadn't been there.

PHP would then pick up any resulting response from the Frontpage script.

Again, cURL internalises all this.

Thanks for the pointer. I could use a little more info though...... From what I've read so far Curl needs to be compiled into PHP. Is there a way that you know of to install Curl on Windows ?

Looks like the Curl extension is already included in the Windows version. I just had to enable it in the php.ini file and move some DLL's around. Now ............

Can someone help me out by supplying a small sample of using Curl to pass POST variables ..... I'll be reading the spec. but could really use some advise from anyone that has done this before. (Experience)
