Hosted Payment Page tweaks

I am collecting shipping address info as part of my signup process, and I have this information in hand when I shuttle the user off to the CG Hosted Payment Page. I'd like to pass this information in via the URL -- same fashion as the first name, last name, and email -- to pre-populate the billing address fields.

Relatedly, I have an account on my side with their name and info already set up. I don't want to allow them to edit their name or email in CG, so an option to prevent that like the plan code would be awesome.

(removed comments about possible bug, was a problem with my code)

    No problem. The parameters are elements of a subscription. So, you can pass, for example, subscription[ccCity] and set it equal to the city.

    Hmm... not possible right now. Might I suggest developing a method to keep these in sync?

    Ok, to make sure I understand, the URL would look like this...

    http://example.chargevault.com/update?method=cc&key=CUST_KEY&code=CUST_CODE&subscription[ccCity]=New York&subscription[ccState]=New York

    Goes without saying, I was hoping you could save me the trouble. ;)

    Correction: billing address parameters are passed directly, not under the subscription array. The following worked for me...

    http://example.chargevault.com/update?method=cc&key=CUST_KEY&code=CUST_CODE&ccCity=New York&ccState=New York

    It seems that both work.
