Can I POST a form to an external URL and also my own server?

Question

In rails, can I get a form submit to send the info in the form both to an external URL, and also post to my own server, all with one click from the user?

Answer 1

In the create or update actions in the controller, after the save action:

require 'net/http'
Net::HTTP.get('www.example.com', '/index.html?'+params)
