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!
