How do I post to a form outside of my DotNetNuke site?

I specifically need to post to an external email sign-up form (this external site manages my contacts and email lists).

This is a snippet of the code supplied by the email provider:

<form method=post action="http://app.icontact.com/icp/signup.php" name="icpsignup" accept-charset="UTF-8" onsubmit="return verifyRequired();" >
...
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">

I am a newbie and have no idea how to approach this in the DNN environment.

Thanks in advance for your help!

I've had this exact problem before.  Because ASP.NET wraps the entire page in < form > tags, you cant add your another < form > inside your page.

The solution is to create a html page with the form code above in it, eg subscribe.htm.  Upload this htm file to the root of your site and then use the IFrame module to load this html page by setting the IFrame url to http://www.yoursite.com/subscribe.htm.

JK.
