PHP question about form POST data

[Morlan]

I'm a novice with PHP but really enjoying it so far.

I want to execute some PHP code and then send the user to another site with POST data. At the moment, the user has to click on the Submit button in a form to send POST data. Is there anyway this can be done automatically with PHP?

This is what I have currently:

<?php
(execute php code)
?>


<form action="anotherScript.php" method="post">
<input type=hidden name="someName" value="someValue">
<input name="submit" type="submit" value="Click here to continue"  />
</form>

What I would like to do:

<?php
(execute php code)

(send user automatically to anotherScript.php with POST data)
?>

Thanks for the help.

Thank for that. I read up on CURL there and decided just to use a second page, as you suggested.
