[thelist] Re-Posting

I do this quite a bit using Cold Fusion, but it should work in any language,
but it requires JavaScript.  I pass everything to my Cold Fusion template to
process, then after CF is done, I display a form with hidden fields
containing the info I want to pass.  I then use a <body
onLoad='document.form.submit()'> in the page that sends it on to the next
page.

If you don't want to use JS, CF can also post pages to servers as well.

Subject: [thelist] Re-Posting

Hello All;
The subject may seem vague, but in a sense accurate.  What I am trying to
accomplish is to in a sense perform a double form post.
I have a form that is sent to an application (not of my design, and not
modifiable in any sense unfortunately).  What I need is to send the same
form to a script that will send an e-mail with the contents and either at
the same time, or afterwards, send to this application.  I have been
researching this issue but short of writing some custom DLL, I can't find a
way to re-post the form data.  Additionally the form data must use the post
method, get will not work unfortunately.  Is there a way, using the
traditional scripting languages (or untraditional for that matter), to take
some form data, do something with it, and then post the same data along to
something else?  (Maybe some sort of wrapper?)

Thanks for any suggestions.
