Hi eleo_,

It looks as though you can probably do it with the cURL action or maybe the ReDirect action. See the (English) docs here .

Can you explain me cURL action and ReDirect action? What are the differents?
On my designer view at my checkbox i must set an events? On check...?

Hi eleo,

They are both ways to send data to a remote site. The main difference is that a ReDirect URL sends the data AND the User - like a PayPal link; cURL only sends the data and the user stays on your site.

cURL is also more configurable if there are special requirements for linking to the Payment GateWay,

Sorry, but for me is little difficult
if in onsubmit setup

i add curl with:
target url http://myconsole/frontend/subscribe.aspx
fields map list="1"
group="5"
email="email@gmail.com"

i would like to try with a static email, but it doesn't work...
There is a problem with email i see in the debugger email=email%40gmail.com

Please try the redirect action, does it work ? if not then what's the result url in your browser's address bar ?

If i use redirect, it works! i've copy the same target url and the same fields map.
It's better redirect or curl?

Sorry, now it works with curl, i must set Header in response>> Yes.
But how can i run curl action, only when my checkbox is check? now it always run.

Hi eleo_,

Use an Event Switcher action to check if the checkbox is ticked. Put the cURL action in the On Success event of the Event Switcher..
