[thelist] Re: [thelist]Can you submit to two different pages from a form?

[Janet Nabring-Stager]

Many many many thanks to Anthony, Chris and Wade for their
suggestions!  After fiddling around with the XMLHTTP object without
success (because I'm submitting to a server that I know
next-to-nothing about, I'm not certain what is blocked and what
isn't), Wade's JavaScript and window suggestion is working
beautifully.  Just wanted to say thanks again (and offer up a
somewhat basic tip):
<tip>
Are those frustrating single and double quotes giving you fits?  One
thing that has always helped me check and double-check them is to
work from the end of the statement in, meaning comparing quotes from
the beginning and end and working my way directly back into the
middle.
