    Hey,

    Just wondering if anybody knows how to pass data to clickbank order page.

    EG if i collect name and email on website, I want to pass this info to the CB order page so the customer does not have to enter this again.

    I think with every transaction, Clickbank order form is expected to work in such a way that it will
    always collect and pass 9 parameters to the thank you page.

    These 9 parameters are:

    ClickBank receipt number
    Order time
    ClickBank item number
    ClickBank proof of purchase
    Customer name
    Customer e-mail
    Customer zip
    Customer country
    Affiliate nickname
    Vendor variables

    So even if you collect name and email address on your website, clickbank order form will
    ask for these two again.

    Okay, I was wrong :p, as I don't have much knowledge about PHP either.

    After some searching, I found out that this can be done.

    This link gives some information

    Hey Swerd,

    The PHP you'll need is this:

    <?

    $name = $_REQUEST["cname"];
    $email = $_REQUEST["cemail"];

    ?>

    That will take the variables from the CB "complete order" link and then allow you to put them onto your page.

    You will be able to use this variable when you want to post the variables:

    <?
    echo $name;

    ?>

    Unless you use a gimmicky iframe or some kind of browser plugin, there's no way you can auto-fill the order form that's hosted on CB.

    You mean the actual order page?

    I don't think that's actually possible because in order to manipulate that page, you need to have access to its code so that you can put some Javascript on there or use some PHP Session Variables.

    Where have you seen it before? If you should us an example, we'll probably be able to work it out!

    Youre going to need a developer really mate, yes it is possible.... however very awkward due to how the clickbank system works... I have a developer and just asked him about it and he said "it would be a massive b***-ache to make it work" - and that basically that hed rather have a less fancy system than having this as the time for him to make it work wouldnt be worth the advantage of having it

    basically this is the link: http://39.earth4.pay.clickbank.net/?cbskin=48&cbfid=511&name=$name&email=$email

    if you replace $name and $$email with something it will show up on the cb order page.

    So after I collect name and email from my optin I need to put this info into the link.
