Expected return codes from a third-party server:


1 - contact saved successfully, Mailocator will display a thank you note
0 - contact was not saved successfully, Mailocator displays information about the duplicate contact

PHP example


After successfully processing the request on the server, just call echo '1';, the return value is interpreted as a correctly stored contact.
