Hi,

I am working on a module that connects Drupal to an external Web Service.
When a user registers, I want him to register in the web service and not in Drupal.
I want to override the submit function that is called when the user_register form is submitted.

I tried several things but no one works.

First I tried to change the $form[#base]. It doesn't work because my submit function would be called if and only if the user_register_submit function did not exist (but it exists !!!).

Then I tried to change $form[id] to 'mymodule_user_register' and write a mymodule_user_register_submit function. But it doesn't work (and I don't understand why).

Any idea ?

Regards

You can install a custom submit handler with form['#submit'], as mentioned above, Documentation is here: http://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/developer--topics--forms_api_reference.... (I have this page bookmarked, it is very useful whenever you are manipulating forms.)

Alternately, you could implement hook_user(), $op == 'submit'. You can use that same function to alter the form (and insert your submit handler).
