Retrieve IFRAME POST values in PHP script

[rapmonkey]

I have a form with an IFRAME that the user types in, then clicks a submit button which POSTS the form data to a php file. How can I get the post data from the Iframe in the php script?

Thanks for any help! 😃

You COULD use a store/forward technique. Here is a rough pseudo what it would look like:

IFRAME POSTS
Grab vairables and then place them in a temp SESSION variable. You could even do a comma separted list such as $var1;$var2;$var3; that way you only use one session variable instead of a billion. :-D

Then run this:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JAVASCRIPT" TYPE="TEXT/JAVASCRIPT">
<!-- Hide script from old browsers
// End hiding script from old browsers -->
parent.top.location.href='http://www.google.com';
</SCRIPT>

That will bounce them to google.com but place your site in there. Then look for the temp session variable and run this if found:

$posted_array = explode(";",$GLOBAL_SESSION_VARIABLE_NAME);
$var1 = $posted_array[0];
$var2 = $posted_array[1];
$var3 = $posted_array[2];

That SHOULD return all the data they sent without using a method that will show the user what data was placed in the iframe. I have NOT tried this, I am pretty sure that it will work but just incase it doesn't you can't say you weren't warned. haha, I have learned my lesson on here when things don't work.

Take care and have a good one,
