One form with two actions

[Paul_Withers]

Hi, I have a page with a PayPal button at the bottom. I am attempting to run two actions when the PayPal button is pressed. One is to process the PayPal payment and the other that opens another page which I have called testpage.php

 

I have used a script I found online as I have no experience in Javascript, this is meant to run two actions when the PayPal button is clicked. However only the testpage.php opens.

 

Here is what i got, have I done it wrong? Or is there a better way to do this?

<?php
include 'init.php';
include 'includes/overall/header.php';
include 'includes/logo.php';
?>
<script language="Javascript">
<!--
function OnButton1()
{
    document._xclick.action = "https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"
    // document._xclick.target = "_blank";    // Open in a new window

    document._xclick.submit();             // Submit the page

    return true;
}

function OnButton2()
{
    document._xclick.action = "testpage.php"
    document._xclick.target = "_blank";    // Open in a new window

   // document._xclick.submit();             // Submit the page

    return true;
}
-->
</script>

<?php
if (!isset($_SESSION['loggedin'])) {
   die("You must be logged in to view this page!"); //this causes to script to stop executing and lets the user know there is a problem

/*
Note:  instead of the die() function, you could use the echo() function and provide an HTML link back to the login page, or use the header() function to just redirect users to the login page without any message. It is up to you to decide what your application should behave.
*/
}

//else {  //logged in 
elseif (isset($_SESSION['loggedin']) ){  //logged in 

$username = $_SESSION['loggedinuser'];

$results = $con->query("SELECT * FROM user WHERE username = '$username';");
while($row = $results->fetch_array()) {
$business = $row['paypal_email'];


$user_id = $_GET['user_id'];

Any help is always appreciated

You can't submit a form to two locations.

 

I don't know what this testpage is for but can't you redirect to it after the PayPal process completes? If not, what is it for?

The first thing I'm seeing is you seem to be missing semi-colons after the .action lines in both of your onButton() JS functions.
