$perl=fopen('http://localhost/your_perl_script.pl?data='.$your_data,'r');
fclose($perl);
optionaly, you can read from the file handler to get some feedback from the perl script

I just realized I should have been more specific with my question. What I want to do is use php to submit registration data to the database and then send part of the data to a perl script to be encrypted and sent in an email. I have to use perl for the encryption because of user permissions on the server-Php and GPG run as different users. So I have to send the data in 2 different directions rather than keep it in the same script. I would like to be able to do it without having the user do double entries. If I can still do this without two submits, then I guess I do need an example.
Thanks for the responses,
SW

For that example, you don't need two submits... the same script that
handles the submitted data for the database can send the email...
usually it's only a problem if one form has to be submitted to two servers,
or something...
do you need an example?

HelloJustin French
I would like to know if it is possible to use Php to make a form perform
2 actions by having the user click on a single submit button. For
instance, send data to a database and email it simultaneously. I would
prefer not to use javascript. If someone could point me to an example I
would appreciate it
Thanks,
S.W.
