Yesideez Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 You can't have them go to different locations, all you can do is check for each submit button wherever your form is pointing to. if ($_POST['event_title']) { //handle title here } if ($_POST['event_shortdesc']) { //handle shortdesc here } Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/150370-solved-form-action-2-locations/#findComment-789701 Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt.sisto Posted March 20, 2009 Author Share Posted March 20, 2009 I haven't explained what it is I want to do properly. When the client selects a date they can check the availability or add an event, depending on the submit button activated. But the date value must be used in the addevent.php or chekavailabilty.php. http://www.salmonsreach.org/cal.php if you activate a link to a date, then the addeventform.php opens in a popup window. Perhaps if you have a look at the form it would be easier to understand.

matt.sisto Posted March 20, 2009 Author Share Posted March 20, 2009 I want the date to be posted to the addevent script when submit1 is activated, but to the ceckavailability script when submit2 is activated. I don't know how to explain it in a less confusing way.
