People database

[KS]

Hi,
We are developing a webpage for our group, which shows the details of
the people working in the groups. For example: Last name, First name,
Status, Phone, Fax and Mailing address.
One of us is supposed to take care of new people being added to database
and shown on the webpage. We have a page to put in the details(a form),
which calls a php script. The script checks if there is another person
with the same name in the database and shows the options depending on
the result. If there is someone three buttons appear: Update, Reset, and
Add New. If there is none, two buttons appear: Add New and Reset. I want
to know, if I have different scripts for "Add New", "Reset" and "Reset",
will the $_POST variables(gener ated by the first form for details) be
passed to these scripts.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks.

If you're asking what I think you're asking, no, since a <form> can only have
one action attribute, so always gets submitted to the same script. But you can
work out which of the submit buttons were pressed by giving them a name and
value attribute.

I was planning to write three scripts for three forms. One button in
each form calls a different script.
