Hello everyone- I have a pretty easy question that I can't seem to answer myself so I'm coming to you all. Below you'll see some html code for a form. Now what happens is that when I click on one of the images to submit the form (either on the update_event.gif image or the delete_event.gif image) the form goes to redirect.php. The problem I am having is that I have a switch statement which runs off the variable "button" on the redirect.php page (hence the name="button" in the form). However, you would think if you clicked on the update_event.gif that "button" would be set to "updateEvent" on the redirect.php page. Well it isn't set to anything at all! Here's the other problem, since I have two different acctions I can do on the same page I can't do Hidden variables on this page because I can't have button being two different values. Anyway, what I need is when a user clicks on the image to submit the form I need the button to be set to the correct value. Any suggestions on how to do this?? <form action="redirect.php" method="post"> <input type="image" border="0" name="button" src="images/update_event.gif" value="updateEvent"> <input type="image" border="0" name="button" src="images/delete_event.gif" value="deleteEvent"> </form> Thanks!
