[SOLVED] echoing

[squiblo]

hi,

with this code i dont know what the action in the form should be set to for the same page and it is not echoing out "more blah blah blah" when i click the form button.

 

<div id="pagecontent">
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="20" cellpadding="0" class="pagecontent" align="left">
<tr>
    <td>Popular Categories
     </td>


     
</tr>

<tr>
    <td>blah blah blah 
<?php   
if (isset($_POST['more'])){
echo "more blah blah blah";
}
?>
 </td>	
</tr>
<tr>
   <td>
   <form action="" method="POST">
   <input type="button" name="more "value="View all categories">
   </form>
   </td>
</tr>
</table>  
</div>

   <input type="button" name="more "value="View all categories">

should be

   <input type="button" name="more" value="View all categories">

its is still not echoing out "more blah blah blah" there are no errors

Buttons are just visual buttons, they don't actually do anything unless you attach an event to them. Is there a reason why you are not using a type="submit" ?

 

And an empty action="" refers to the same page.

thank the button type was the problem, it should have been "submit"
