posting form data to two php scripts at once

[one.1more@gmail.com]

How do i post the form data to different php files at once. I tried the
following code but it doesn't work. the data is sent only to the first
php file.

<form method="post" action="insert. php" action="mail.ph p">
Email<input type="text" name="email" value ="" size="20" />
<input type="submit" value="submit" />
</form>


Is there a solution?

You can't, HTML forms don't work like that.

You simply can't submit two forms at once.

I'd propose to use AJAX's XMLHttpRequest. As a starting point, look
here: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/XMLHttpRequest

Basically, you need to instantiate two XMLHttpRequest object, and fire
them one after the other. Both XMLHttpRequest get fired asynchronously,
if used using correct settings.

To prepare the XMLHttpRequest, use JavaScript
