form action error

[pcw]

Hi, I am modifying a script that backs up my mysql database. One of the changes I am making is to be able to select the database to restore, from a select menu.

 

To restore a database at the moment, a link is used:

 

<?php
if (!$error && !isset ($_REQUEST["fn"]) && $filename!="")
{ echo ("<p><a href=\"".$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]."?start=1&fn=".urlencode($filename)."&foffset=0&totalqueries=0\">Start Import</a> from $filename into $db at $dbhost</p>\n");
}
?>

 

My script which allows a database to be selected from a menu, should carry out this task, instead of a link being clicked on.

 

I think I need to put the link URL as the form action but cant work out how to do it. Any help is much appreciated.

 

Thanks

you mean like this?

<form action="<?php echo $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]."?start=1&fn=".urlencode($filename)."&foffset=0&totalqueries=0"; ?>" />
