form from one page to another

I notice and was wondering how it is done when you have a field on one page "newsletter signups" and then you hit signup and then It takes you to another page with the their email in already and then they fill out the rest?

This is something that I what to add to one of my sites! Any help would be great!

Thanks,

Ok, it's pretty simple in php

You need to scripts .. the first would have a <form action= .. to the php script #2
in the first script if you have e.g. <input type="text" name="email">

in the second script you would wnat something like:
<input type="text" name="email" value="<?php echo $_REQUEST['email']; ?>">

then it'll pass thru both php scripts

let me know if you have any more problems

I have icontact.com and they will not send me a copy of the php file. Is there any other ways of going about doing this?
