Connect to Reservation/Booking Server with Gravity Form

    We need to make a form that has a datepicker and other options for vacation rentals that connects to another server that then displays results through an iframe with available properties.

    How do we build a form that can connect to a server, not just email?

  2. Does it need to connect to pull information, or just collect the information in the form, and send that to the server? We will need more information to help you with this question. Thanks

    It needs to just send the info. The vendor for the booking engine will supply us with the info to connect the form to the booking engine and the iframe that displays the results, but we just want to make sure that it is possible.

    Thanks!

  4. How does the interaction with the booking engine work? Do you pass the data to the booking engine via the URL in the iframe? Do you post the data to the booking engine via a form post?

    I would need to know more details on how you need to integrate with the booking engine in order to give you suggestions on how to accomplish what you want to do because there are a variety of ways to handle this and the implementation is going to depend on what is required by the booking engine you are using.
