Re: CD signup scripting

Yes the standard Optigold pages work fine, but I'm trying to make this
work from Optiskin. I can't figure out how to get the Optiskin files to
post the right content in the .ins file back to the user.

I can make the download dialog open by forcing the proper headers back
to the browser, but the contents are either blank or originally were
Invalid as Lewis has mentioned.

So if the format tag is used to format the output how does one grab that
output and format it properly? My signupinfo.php file just makes the
above post to FMPro and then attempts to write the response back to the
clients browser along with the headers to force it as a download file.
As far as I can tell the standard Optigold pages are just sending back
[FMP-Field: gText Temp 1, Raw], but that doesn't makes sense to me
really since that's also the field used to check for an error. Anyway
that's the format that signupinfo.cdml is using to return the content of
the response. What do I need to be using?

Is there any timing involved with then such a post is valid versus "too
late"? Or can I make the above post at any time for a customer to
"reconfigure" their system even at a later time?

Thanks,
Ron
