Hi Thanks for the info. Thats what I am doing. What is happening is a checkout page, the user confirms the amount of goods to buy and then I need to open a new page posting the data from the user and an mysql database. The problem I am facing is that I need to post all the gather data (user input/mysql) over to paypal so that all the date will not apper in the address bar. ie allow the user to change the data. so far I ve got something like [!--quoteo--][div class=\'quotetop\']QUOTE[/div][div class=\'quotemain\'][!--quotec--]header("Location: [MY URL]");[/quote] I know that using something like [!--quoteo--][div class=\'quotetop\']QUOTE[/div][div class=\'quotemain\'][!--quotec--]header("Location: [MYURL]?current=34&user=66");[/quote] would work but it would also show the data in the url allowing people to change it. Any ideas. Thanks

Hello I am looking for some help with headers. I need to open a new web page and “post” data to it. I think I have to use the header commands but I am a bit unsure. Can any one suggest some basic code to allow me to set up a header (or whatever) that would allow me to do this. I am know that I could set the location to point to the url and add the different elements (data) onto the end of it but I need to make it private so that people don’t know what data I am posted to the other site. Any help would be great. Thanks

Hello Can any help me out? I have a large script which takes a long time to run and all the output is to a SQL database. Is there anyway of executing a script on the side (if you like) but then hot having to wait for it to finish. For example a script tells the server to execute another script in the background while the 1 first script continues to tell the user that the large script is running in the background. Thanks in advance.
