More multiple submit buttons

November 17th, 2005

Following on from Khalid's previous post on multiple submit buttons, its also worth nothing that you can have multiple submit buttons with the same name attribute, e.g:

<input type="submit" name="action" value="Edit" id="actionEdit" />
<input type="submit" name="action" value="Delete" id="actionDelete" />

So, once the form's been submitted, in PHP the $_POST['action'] var will be set to either Edit or Delete.
