Others are making this WAY more complicated than it needs to be.
<FORM METHOD="post" ACTION="<? echo $PHP_SELF; ?>">
File Name: <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="filename"><br>
<INPUT TYPE="submit" NAME="button" VALE="Submit">
<INPUT TYPE="submit" NAME="button" VALE="Delete">
</FORM>
Then at the top put:
<?
switch($button){
case 'Submit':
// do submit stuff
break;
case 'Delete':
// do delete stuff
break;
}
?>
No hidden fields are required, no extra processing either - it's a pretty
simple task AFAIK.
