What I'd be inclined to do would be to write a script such that it takes
the data from the form, collates that, sends it as a http request to the
vendor's server, and interprets what it gets back as either "OK, you're
subscribed", or "Sorry, there was a problem", and present that to the client.
In Cold Fusion, you'd use CFHTTP to do this; there are equivalents in
other scripting languages. No real need to get into iframes and so on; all
this can happen with one submission from the client, and without ever
leaving your server, from their point of view.
