Passing data between pages

[frustrated]

Ok, I know how to pass data using forms and get the info through $_GET and $_POST. This is sort of hard for me to explain to bear with me.

This guide I've been reading on how to interact with this particular online credit card processor is giving information on how to pass information to them so they can validate credit cards and all that crap. All of their examples use forms and hidden input fields to pass various info - such as a pin number and stuff.

Finally at the end of this guide they are like using hidden form fields were only examples and we wouldn't recommend this method. ???? Brilliant!

So, is there a way that a form has been submitted, to have it go to say a page within my site, I can validate, manipulate, and do whatever with the form information and then pass this info off to another page so that it's coming as form variables.

If I'm not clear enough say so and I will try and explain more.

Thanks

One way is to use cURL which supports SSL/HTTPS.
