THE SETUP:
Full form processing w/validation (1.6, haven't upgraded yet). Checks email addresses to ensure their valid and additionally against a list of our own checks in place to see if they're a competitor or personal email address. All runs back through our own processing model. Kicks off an email and into a database. It's wonderful.
THE PROBLEM:
The company is now using a 3rd party to expedite the processing of all forms submitted through the site. So essentially, what they want me to do is set the action on the form to go directly to their server. But, if I do that, I can't run any server-side validation on it, or process the message the way I want to, before kicking it into their system.
THE QUESTION:
Can I still run all of the CI validation, etc. and then have the form submit to their site without using the 'action' method? I'd like to think there's a way to still send all the info to their site, attaching the post variables, through my model. Similar to the way I send it all into the database. Thoughts?
