I have played with this some unsuccessfully and can't find any
references to it on-line.
What I have is a forms-based application where I POST the form. This
was decided on because of security and the length limits of a URL. Now
I have a need where I would like to link to a form and "fake" some of
the variables that are normally posted.
For example, I have a form that normally comes up where the user
selects information from a combobox and on reload, the fields are then
automatically filled in. I would like to be able to go to that form
from other locations and fake the POST variable of the combobox so that
the form will fill in when they first access it.
Am I trying to do the impossible?

No. You can try to use cURL: http://www.php.net/curl
There is also Snoopy: http://snoopy.sourceforge.net/

I'd suggest that you make a GET-Request to a new script, which will make
a POST-Request to your existing script.
The FAQ of the german speaking PHP newsgroups has a nice example for a
POST-Request. Read http://www.dclp-faq.de/q/q-code-post.html, ignore the
short german text and just have a look at the code. You should be able
to understand how it works.
On the other hand you could just change your script and get the data fom
the $_REQUEST-array instead of the $_POST-array.
Regards,
Matthias
P.S.: You might want to wait for a solution from the genius "ww",
because I'm "one of those stupid people posting to news groups
that has NO clue what he's talking about".

similar to a recently asked question -
The scenario is that posted data from World Pay is to be used to construct
one of two pages depending on the content of one of the posted variables.
Could someone help with passing on posted data to another page. I have in
mind loop which reads the posted data and reconstucts it to pass on using a
redirect with a querystring - if such a thing is possible. Or is there an
easier way?

Good morning,
Is there a good way to use JavaScript to send a form submission, but get
back the response as a string, rather than loading it into a page? I
could write the code to send the submission via XMLHttpRequest, but that
seems hard... especially implementing multipart-encoded form submission
such as required for file upload.
Ideas?

Hello all,
I have written numerous functions that check all user entered data on my
site via POST and GET. My question is this: once my data checks out as
being valid, I sometimes store it in SESSION as I move between pages,
and eventually use the values in SESSION to update my database. Do I
need to re-check the values in SESSION to make sure they are still valid
before updating the database? In other words, I know session data...

I write JavaScript for client side computing in HTML file in ASPX design.
However, I found that the variables declared in JavaScript are initialized
again when the page post back to the server. Therefore, after that, the
computation would be wrong. My question is how to keep the values of the
JavaScript variables unchange when the page postback to the server.
Thank you
