Hi Pedro,

But how to use curl when posting from a clients machine to another website?
As Daniel pointed out in this thread: Your own server isn't involved!

But both your responses give me the following idea:
Server1 = your own server
Server2 = another server (the one with failure or succes)
Now:
1) Let the forms action NOT be to Server2, but to Server2.
2) Let Server2 (using curl) POST All the data to Server1.
3) Now you can decide what to do on failure or succes.

Maybe this was what you ment in the first place Pedro, in which case I'll
bang my head with a fish.
:-)

Erwin Moller
