I see the basic's... but... It's not completely clear from what I'm seeing.
1. It appears if I use the header function I have to redirect the page to
another page, it doesn't appear possible to retrieve a page into the current
page? Unless someone can show me some code that would do that.
2. it's not clear how you would actually set the HTTP_POST_VARS's and when
you use the header("Request-URI:"); if that uses the HTTP_POST_VARS?
as of right now it looks like the code would go as follows:
<?php
$HTTP_POST_VARS (not sure how to set these
Something like this $HTTP_POST_VARS['uid']="userid"; )
header("Request-URI: http://localhost/cgi-bin/script.pl");
?>
Is that all that has to be done?
thanks,
evan
