Send HTMl form data

[DNA]

Hi,

I need to submit a html form from within FP7. It will be used to send customers data eg name, email address automatically to a web based autoresponder system.

I have the HTML form code I use on the web page, but I can't figure out how to use that code and integrate it into FP7 so when I hit a 'Submit' button in FP7 it will submit the form data.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards

Mark

You mean beyond the Export as HTML format?

Mark wants to make a FMP script that simulates submitting a form on a web page.

I have no idea how to do it, except that it'd probably done by the FMP script calling a php script to do the processing.

However I could see a nuber of potential problems, some serious: the web page may be secure; it may require cookies; or the form may use some type of session tracking.

Mark,

does the web autoresponder also support GET instead of POST, i.e. submitting data in a URL of the form http://host/action?field1=value1&field2=value2&.... ?

Then you could convert your form to such a query, e.g. by way of a calculation field, and use the "Open URL" script step for the button.
