The Goal: To have a single form with one submit button that submits
it's data to two (2) seperate URL's. Each of the two seperate URLs use
different id and names for the same data. It will be submitting the
data to both salesforce.com and jangomail.com.
We also do not want any new windows to popup or any iframes/frames being used. |

alpaceherder-ga,
Forms don't submit to URLs. Forms submit by performing an action.
Usually that action is a script written in Perl, PHP, ASP, or some
other languge which knows how to read the form data and send an email,
write a record to a database, redirect to a web page, etc.
When you say "submit to two URLs", could you be more specific as to
what you need to have happen? What happens when one of these URLs
"receives" the form submission?

Here is the situation, I have one form with this action:
http://www.jangomail.com/APPLICATION/ProcessGroupSignupForm.asp?emailcat_id=2439244&return_address=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Etextlinkbrokers%2Ecom%2Fsign%2Dconfirm%2Ehtml&error_return_address=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Etextlinkbrokers%2Ecom%2Flink%2Dmatch%2Derror%2Ehtml&required_fields=FirstName%2C+Newsletter&return_values=y&send_email=rob%40textlinkbrokers%2Ecom
This form submits things like a person's name, email address, etc. I
need that same for to submit to salesforce. Salesforce form action
looks like this:
http://www.salesforce.com/servlet/servlet.WebToLead?encoding=UTF-8
Both salesforce and jangomail require the same fields (name, email,
etc) to be named (id=) different things to record the same
information. We need a way around this, so that the form the customer
fills out on the page sends the information to both these places.
We do not want any frames, iframes or new windows popping up.

alpacaherder-ga,
Do you have any control over the ASP script run by jangomail and/or
the servlet run by salesforce?

Salesforce allows us to chose the page they return to after
submitting, I can't find any information about transering variables to
that page also.
Jangomail says you can pass the form values back to your web site via
a querystring. They also have documentation on their setup here:
