Passing control onto another form

[jwhite68]

I am working with a payment gateway, which sends its response with a specific php page.

Lets say response.php, with parameter ?val=data.  ie http://abc.com/response.php?val=data.

 

On this php page, I want to perform some processing, but ultimately dont want to display any html form with this page.  I need some way to perform my processing on this php page, then immediately redirect to another php to display the next form, with the results.  Can anyone advise on how this is achieved?

 

So for example, I want it to then  invoke display.php?mode=1&conf=1, which has the formal display with all the results.  All this with NO user input.

cURL has the ability to access other sites and perform actions externally without the user knowing. I suggest you read up on that

Since it will always be on my site, perhaps it can be done without CURL?

Sorry, I completely misunderstood your question. My bad.

 

<?php

session_start(); // Start the sessions
ob_start(); // Start an output buffer

// Do all your processing

$result = ob_end_flush(); // $result now contains what would be outputted from your processing
$_SESSION["result"] = $result; // This variable can be accessed from the next page

header("Location: display.php"); // Now we can redirect you to display.php

?>

 

Now in your second page:

 

<?php

session_start();

echo $_SESSION["result"];

?>
