Submit form

[Rochtus]

I use the following script.

 

<form name="pagina1" action="" method="post">
<a href="index.php" onclick="document.pagina1.submit();return false">

 

But what i need is the script to first submit the form: pagina1

and after that go to index.php

How do i have to do this?

After form submitting you are not on current page, so you can't go to other page.

There are two solutions

1 use ajax

2 after form submit, on page which handles form, do redirection (function header()) to index.php

Are you trying to get this form to submit itself to index.php?  Or do you mean you just need to be redirected back to the index page once the script you are sending the form information to runs?

I'm struggling with the same problem too but my aim is to submit the form

[rhodesa]

if you are looking to redirect to a different page immediately after, just do a normal form submit, and have the script that is processing forward the user after with:

header('Location: index.php');
exit;

...as stated by @dzelenika

 

the only case i can see the need for ajax is if you needed to submit multiple forms or you didn't want to navigate away from the current page

From is not to redirect it but to call php after validating using  ajax on form.submit(); or my <form ></form > attributes are not correct to submit the form after javascript /ajax validation for client and server side
