<a href="{$this_path}page.php" onclick="javascript:post_Form.submit();"

needs to be

<a href="{$this_path}page.php" onclick="javascript:post_Form.submit();">

 

and you have nothing inside that a tag, is that correct?

I also have a title and and an image if thats what you r asking

 

<a href="{$this_path}page.php" onclick="javascript:post_Form.submit();" title="{l s='Something'}">
	<img src="{$this_path}image.gif" alt="{l s='Something'}" />

notice i closed the tag, the last character.

not closing an a tag sometimes messes everything up!

If you're redirecting a user after the submit something I'd add Header at the end of the code that executes.

 

<?php

if (!isset($_POST['test_checkbox']))
{
     //Your code your excuting
   Header("Location: pageyouredirectto");   

}

Yeah. That was a copy paste typo. In my next post(where i ve included title and image) its the right one

ok. but thats not the problem now. the test_checkbox is never set, probably because. its never posted in this page (throught post_Form)

Ummmm.... I would suggest removing $this_path on the form action and just do ./page.php or something, see if it posts then, if it does then look into whatever you set $this_path

no luck... the code inside

if (!isset($_POST['test_checkbox']))

is always executed,, which means its never set. wether iv checked the checkbox or not

thanks for the help guys..

Ok, so i tried this:

 

<a href="javascript:post_Form.submit();" onclick="location.href('{this_path}page.php');" title="{l s='Something'}">
	<img src="{$this_path}image.gif" alt="{l s='Something'}" />
</a>

 

and it worked. But i realized that the code inside page.php was being executed twice.

So i changed it, to just this:

 

<a href="javascript:post_Form.submit();" title="{l s='Something'}">
	<img src="{$this_path}image.gif" alt="{l s='Something'}" />
</a>

 

and it worked perfectly. (form was posted succesfully, i was redirected to page.php and code executed once)

So, Solved. :]
