Submit form to Aweber and to my own page

Hello kind people!
Hope that you can help me.

I have a landing page with a form.
After the user filled the form it takes him to a PHP page that redirects him to a certain URL according to what he checked in the form.

I have an E-Mail input on that form which I want it submitted to my Aweber's mailing list.
The question is, how do I make my PHP script submit it to Aweber and than redirect him to the URL according to his choices.

You can view the landing page I did here:
Engagement Rings Advisor

This is the submit.php script I made (currently only 2 URLs to choose from):

PHP Code:


			
<?php

$link1 = "http://www.jamesallen.com/engagement-rings/solitaire-rings";

$link2 = "http://www.jamesallen.com/engagement-rings/pave";



if(empty($_POST["price"]) && empty($_POST["prefer"]) && empty($_POST["metal"]) && empty($_POST["quality"])) {

?>

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html lang="en">

<head>

    <meta charset="utf-8">

    <title>Engagement Rings Advisor</title>

    <link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet">

    <!--[if lt IE 9]>

    <script src="http://html5shim.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"></script>

    <![endif]-->

</head>

<body>

<div id="back_box">

<div id="main_box">

<div id="logo"></div>

<?

    echo "<div id='error'>All or one of the fields weren't filled.<br><br>";

    echo "<form method='GET' action='index.html'>";

    echo "<input type='submit' value='Go back and try again' id='buttons'>";

    echo "</form></div>";

    exit;

?>

</div>

</div>

</body>

</html>

<?

}



if($_POST["prefer"] == "large") {

    

    header('Location:'.$link1);



} elseif($_POST["prefer"] == "side") {



    header('Location:'.$link2);



} else {



    print "No choise was made";



}

?>

Thanks a lot in advance!!

well the form submission is easy-if(something==something) header("Location:something");

but before that after a quick research(never used aweber in my life):
labs.aweber.com

there's a pretty good chance their api would do that for you

Hi, thanks for the reply

Actually, I thought maybe there was a simpler way to do this without having to use their API.
I spoke to them on the phone and they say there's a javascript that should do it which is:

PHP Code:


			
<script type="text/javascript">document.getElementById('redirect_eeb16cd1f0357a3d30375d7f6dc88b99').value = document.location;</script>

So I tried turning the action on the form to their link and use this javascript afterwards like this:

PHP Code:


			
<form method="post" class="af-form-wrapper" action="http://www.aweber.com/scripts/addlead.pl"  >



<!-- form content -->



</form>

<script type="text/javascript">document.getElementById('submit.php').value = document.location;</script>

But unfortunately, it doesn't work
