physaux Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Hey, I am using php to print out the html code to make a form.. It appears, but when I click the button nothing ever happens, doesn't go to my "action" page at all copied html code: <form action="index.php" method="post"> <input type="text" name="text1" id="text1" /> <input name="asd" type="text" maxlength="50" /> <input name="jhb" type="checkbox" value="" /> <input name="hjblk" type="checkbox" value="" /> <input name="lin" type="button" value="hjkkjk" /> </form> the file this text is on is NOT index.php, it IS test.html I can't see what is wrong with this!!! :confused: anyone see anything? -I'm using XAMPP, and firefox.. EDIT: ahhh type was not "submit"... stupid thing.. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/182215-html-form-not-working/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
premiso Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 <input name="lin" type="submit" value="hjkkjk" /> Fail to see how this is PHP, so moving to HTML. The gist, you were using button when it needs to be submit for it to submit a form.
