simple question !

[Yaz]

I'm a newbie, and struggling a bit ! I've spent about 3 days trying to
solve a simple problem, and I've failed.

I have a screen, with two buttons.
When the user hits either button, a php function (or procedure) should
get called, and the php code needs to programatically work out which
button is pressed. Sounds simple. But I just don't know how to do it. I
have looked at manuals etc, and tried various things, but I just cant
find out the construct

If someone could post a tiny code sample, would be fantasic and much
appreciated.

cheers

I'm still pretty much learning myself, but this is one way. Let me know if
this helps.

<?php
$content = "<form name='form1' method='post' action=''>
<input type='submit' name='submit1' value='Submit'>
</form>
<form name='form2' method='post' action=''>
<input type='submit' name='submit2' value='Submit'>
</form>";
print $content;
if (isset($_POST['submit1'])) { //First submit button clicked
print "The first button was clicked";
}
elseif (isset($_POST['submit2'])) { //Second submit button clicked
print "The second button was clicked";
}

//print_r($_POST) ; //Used for Debugging
?>

Re: simple question !

The two buttons don't have to be in different forms
