[Building Sakai] Posting to a site outside Sakai

[Bill Elliot]

I am trying to create a tool that will, as part of its functionality, post
to a site outside of Sakai. In particular I will be posting to PayPal. But,
when I try to do this I think the fields are being stripped off by Sakai, as
the post will not work when it is done from a Sakai page. But, if I open the
tool's frame in a separate tab it works fine.

 

What do I need to do to ensure that the post to the external site will take
place without modification by Sakai?

 

The second part of my problem lies with the post back that PayPal will do to
our Sakai site. How do I set up a servlet so that PayPal can post directly
to it? I have tried setting up a servlet tool and can see and do a get
request to the tool, but PayPal cannot post to it.
