Submit form -> send email -> autosubmit another form

[davelearning]

Hi all,

 

What I am trying to achieve is, I thought quite simple!

 

Basically, a user signs up and chooses a package, form is submitted, details added to the database, email sent to customer, then I want to direct them to a paypal payment screen, this is where I am having issues!

 

Is their any way in php to submit a form without user interaction? Here is my code for the form process page

<?php
include('config.php');
require('scripts/class.phpmailer.php');

$package = $_POST['select1'];
$name = $_POST['name'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$password = md5($_POST['password']);

$domain = $_POST['domain'];
$a_username = $_POST['a_username'];
$a_password = $_POST['a_password'];


$query=mysql_query("INSERT INTO orders (package, name, email, password, domain, a_username, a_password)
VALUES
('$package', '$name', '$email', '$password', '$domain', '$a_username', '$a_password')");

if (!$query)
{
echo "fail<br>";
echo mysql_error();
}

else
{
$id = mysql_insert_id();
$query1=mysql_query("INSERT INTO customers (id, name, email, password)
values
('$id', '$name', '$email', '$password')");

if (!$query1)
{
	echo "fail<br>";
	echo mysql_error();
}


if($package=="Reseller Hosting")
{

//email stuff here - all works - just cutting it to keep the code short


if(!$mail->Send())
{
   echo "Message could not be sent. <p>";
   echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
   exit;
}
?>


<form name="_xclick" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick-subscriptions">
<input type="hidden" name="business" value="[email protected]">
<input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="USD">
<input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="Jolly Hosting Reseller Packages"> 
<input type="hidden" name="no_shipping" value="1">

<!--1st month -->
<input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="USD">  
<input type="hidden" name="a3" value="3.00">
<input type="hidden" name="p3" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="t3" value="M">
<input type="hidden" name="src" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="sra" value="1">
</form>';


<?php
}

//last
}
//end
?>

To redirect to Paypal you can do an URL redirect like this

 

header("location:https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_xclick&business=$paypal&item_name=$name&amount=$amount&currency_code=CAD&notify_url=".urlencode($notify_url)."&lc=EN&custom=$LAST&return=".urlencode($return));
