I'm currently working on a site for my aunt, where users can go and register for future information, then proceed to RSVP for other events, etc. Currently it will append the information to a database, linked together with an event management system I put together, anyway.. to the point.

I have opted to use Dadamail as the mailer, now I've thrown in the script..

echo '<form action="http://.../mail.cgi" name="subscribe" method="post">';
echo '<input type="hidden" name="thanks" value="http://.../index.php" />';
echo '<input type="hidden" name="list" value="mylist" />';
echo '<input type="hidden" name="email" id="email" value="'.$email.'" />';
echo '<input type="hidden" name="flavor" value="subscribe" />';
echo '</form>';

this is built into a current php script that sends the data to the mysql database, and then is auto sent with the simple javascript.

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
document.subscribe.submit();
</script>

Now, the issue I'm having is, the dadamail applet is installed on a different server, and the 'confirmation page, is well.. quite ugly to say the least, and nothing like my site. I know I could go into the cgi script and edit it to make it look like I want, but I would much prefer if I could just get the form to auto-submit the data, then proceed to my old 'thank you' page, which I had setup and working before I added in the extra step of adding the email to the mailer list. As you can see the line in bold, is setup to re-direct ot back to my site, but it doesn't work, I've checked for a couple hours now, and I can't seem to find anything else that might work in this scenario.

If you would like working examples of what I have to help troubleshoot just let me know.

*Edit* Just to avoid the question and speed things up, yes.. this does send the data to the cgi script, properly, everything is fine with that aspect, just the stupid re-direct..

if you want to redirect, you must use PHP's HEADER function.

but remember, you cant send ANYTHING before the HEADER function or else it will fail and give you an error.

lemme know if you need more php help...
