soccerrprp1 Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Hi all, I was wondering if it was possible and not too messy to have a single form page (html) and have it post to 2 or more PHP files? Surely this is something that is desirable and accomplished at some point, right? Thanks. Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulRyan Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Yeah that would be possible. Looking into AJAX would be handy if you ask me. Not sure how it could be done with PHP, possibly using cURL? Regards, Paul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shlumph Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Not in a single request, no. You would be able to take a request and then create multiple requests, though. How come you want to do something like this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soccerrprp1 Posted November 21, 2010 Author Share Posted November 21, 2010 hi shlumph, well, i want to create multiple versions of the same php file. so, want to be able to post input to all of these and the various versions are being used by others in different ways. kind of having 3 or 4 different styles of the same php file. how would i go about doing this? thanks.

shlumph Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Like PaulRyan mentioned, you could use AJAX which would probably be the easier route if you're familiar with it. Otherwise, you'd have to use cURL: if(isset($_POST)) { //cURL request to V1 //cURL request to V2 //cURL request to V3 } Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
