Question

I have three pages and I would like to have the process be in this order..

1) User types in email in a form and hits enter

2) There is a middle page that keeps the same email post data from user and sends the user to mailing list (same domain as in step 1) I’m sure I’ll use a php header.

3) The mailing list receives the email (different domain)

I really do not have any clue on how to start this. Is there a better way? I just need that middle page to be there…

Thank you.

Simply: http://php.net/manual/en/features.sessions.php

Session support in PHP consists of a way to preserve certain data
across subsequent accesses.

Your middle page would look like this:

$_SESSION['myvar'] = $_POST['myvar'];

Now, $_SESSION['myvar'] can be referenced on any page where session_start(); is placed.
