Input value and buttons

Dear All,

I have made a button save on my script which is inside a form. I have to transfer an input value to a function but the issue is that the button must include the form input text value.

<input class="box" name="btnSave" type="button" id="btnSave" value="Save" onClick="window.location.href='<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] . "?action=save"; ?>';" >

Could you please help me.

Best Regards

Couldn't the button just submit the form?

The form has already a submit input type for update task and the other task like delete, new and save is buttons. Can I make a second submit in a form? Is it possible?

You could have tried it already....just give them diferent name=""/value tag so you know the action required and should be no problem.

This is my solution. Maybe it will help some new programmer with the same issue but the case must be equal the value of the submit input value .

Code: Select all

<?php


if (isset($_POST['btnUpdate']))
{
	$action=$_POST['btnUpdate'];
	
}

switch ($action)
{
	
	case 'Update':
		updateType();
		break;
	case 'view':
}

?>


<input class="box" name="btnUpdate" type="submit" id="btnUpdate" value="Update"/>
