I'm having a bit of trouble with my current issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have a step in a 'signup process' which I don't need anymore, but I don't have time to reconfigure the entire process so I'm trying to auto submit the form on page load so it will basically skip over this step. Any thoughts?
EDIT: Sorry, I should mention, originally there were two submit options, I got rid of one, now I just want to submit the 'mem_type' option on page load. not sure if that makes much of a difference.
<form method=post action="<?=$base_href.url("signup")?>" name="member_signup">
<input type=hidden name="process" value="facility_info">
<input type=hidden name="create_order" value="true">
<?php
foreach ($_POST as $k=>$d) {
if ($k === 'textarea') continue;
echo "<input type=hidden name=\"".strip_tags($k)."\" value=\"".strip_tags($d)."\">";
}
?>
<input type="submit" value="submit" name="mem_type" border="0">
</form>

You can submit any form automatically on page load simply by adding a snippet of javascript code to your body tag referencing the form name like this....
<body onload="document.form1.submit()">
Add the following to Body tag,
<body onload="document.forms['member_signup'].submit()">
and give name attribute to your Form.
<form method="POST" action="" name="member_signup">
This is the way it worked for me, because with other methods the form was sent empty:
<form name="yourform" id="yourform" method="POST" action="yourpage.html">
<input type=hidden name="data" value="yourdata">
<input type="submit" id="send" name="send" value="Send">
</form>
<script>
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function(event) {
document.createElement('form').submit.call(document.getElementById('yourform'));
});
</script>
