Background:
Foobar.htm form uses this:
<form action="http://rawurl-here.gotdns.org" method="POST">
[...]
</form>
rawurl-here.gotdns.org is a Dynamic DNS url that redirects the user to:
http://currentsite001.mysite.org
Question:
Is there a way to ensure that the POST parameters sent by Foobar.htm always reach the final target, regardless of the passthru from rawurl-here.gotdns.org?
-
I normally use DynDNS and haven't problems with POST data.
Do you have problems? Or just want ensure if the data are sent for your target?

dreftymac : Yes I have problems, the POST data does not seem to reach the page when I use the DYNDNS passthru, but when I send directly to the final URL, the POST data makes it through. I know because the page just does a CGI "dump". -
No, POST requests cannot be redirected. The HTTP spec says that any attempt to redirect a non-GET/HEAD request must be confirmed by the user. However, as noted in the text for the 302 redirect, most browsers ignore this and simply change the POST to a GET instead at which point your parameters are gone.
rawurl-here.gotdns.org is a Dynamic DNS url that redirects
You need a dynamic DNS service that doesn't redirect, but just points the DNS A record directly to your IP address. Set your box up to respond to requests for
rawurl-here.gotdns.org
and now you don't need a redirect.DNS redirect and framing services suck anyhow.
