For all you PH Web users (all 2 of you)

Harold,

Here's something you could try.

Modify the html template for the confirmation screen such that it has 
two forms -- the default one created by PHWeb, and a second one that has 
just the bare essentials to confirm the order (e.g. order number, a 
confirmation flag, etc). Have the action of the second form contain the 
application information that PHWeb will use to post the confirmation of 
the order. Then have the 'confirm order' submit button reside in the 
second form. That way, it'll be the one sent back to PHWeb.  The 
resulting html would end up looking something like this:

<form... action=/cgi-bin/phcgi/ph_html=...&ph_qkc=...>
<hidden items...>
<hidden item for order number>
<hidden item for other fields as needed>
<hidden item for PH_ACTION -- whatever is needed to trigger the 
'confirmed' action>
<html button code...>
</form>
