Is their an easy way to call a function based upon a button action?

Example: <form action="action.php"> <input type="submit" name="action1" value="Execute function action1()"> <input type="submit" name="action2" value="Execute function action2()"> </form> action.php: function action1() { echo "Hello, I'm action1"; } function action2() { echo "Hello, I'm action2"; } if(isset($_GET['action1'])) { action1(); } if(isset($_GET['action2'])) { action2(); }

wont they both be set ?

No, only the button that is clicked will be set.

i generally use a button type and onclick document.location.href to enforce an action in the get variable like something.php?action=something
