Redirect with Post Vars

[vbman213]

Ok so here is what I have

Page1 posts to Page2 posts to Page3

I need to be able to click submit on Page1, then form be posted to Page2, then that data be posted to Page3. I need the browser to redirect to Page3. Page3 isn't even on my server. But I need the page to redirect so cookies are set from page3, I can't use cURL.

map the data from the first POST to (a) hidden field(s) on the second form, or use a session

I think the issue here is that page 3 isn't on your server, so I'm assuming a SESSION variable won't help. I'm also assuming you know the POST variables that the 3rd-party page is looking for. If that is the case, then it is just a matter of creating a form full of hidden fields. You can use a form button or Javascript to submit the form, depending on whether you want user interaction.

Here's an example with user interaction:

echo "<form name='form1' action='page3.php' method='post'>\n";
foreach($_POST as $key => $value)
  {
  // Assuming "submit" is the last form object on page 1...
  if($key == "submit") break;
  // Or "continue;" if you have other irrelevant fields to skip.

  // Do some validation here.

  // Create the hidden fields...
  echo "<input type='text' name='$key' value='$value'>\n";
  }
echo "<input type='submit' value='Submit'>\n";
echo "</form>\n";
