Hello,
I tryed to build a form that send the input data to another PHP-script. This script write the data into a database. But how can I sent the data to this script. I tryed it in this way, but it does not work:

class NewsletterFormPage extends Page
{
}
class NewsletterFormPage_Controller extends Page_Controller
{
    function NewsletterForm()
    {
        return new NewsletterForm($this,'NewsletterForm');
    }
}

and
class NewsletterForm extends Form {
function __construct($controller, $name)
    {
		$fields = new FieldSet(
			new TextField("Name", "Name"),
			new EmailField("Email", "E-Mail")
        	);
		$actions = new FieldSet(
 			new FormAction("submit", "Speichern")
		);
		$requiredFields = new RequiredFields("Name", "Email");
 
	parent::__construct($controller, $name, $fields, $actions, $requiredFields);

	}
 
function submit($data, $form) {
 
       $form->setFormAction('http://www.url.com/');
	
	}
}
