stmosaic Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I know this may be a newbie question, but it is something I've been unable to find an answer to. I have a form, name attribute is accom and I wish to reference that forn name in a script that does certain things depending on what the form name is.[code]<form action="http://www.domain.com/forms/processor.php" method="POST" name="Accom">[/code] Now, to refer to this particular form, is it: [code]$formname = $_POST['Accom'];[/code] ?I would appreciate any enlightenment about this!

trq Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Most browsers wont send the form name. You'll need to duplicate the form name in a hidden field and get it from there. eg;[code]<input type="hidden" name="formname" value="Accom">[/code][code]if ($_POST['formaname'] == "Accom") { // do something;}[/code] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stmosaic Posted June 21, 2006 Author Share Posted June 21, 2006 Thorpe,Thanks! Didn't know the form name wasn't processed. Was trying to avoid the hidden field due to some minor issues in the processing routine, but if there is no other way, hidden it is. Thanks again!
