Cancel Button

[brokenhope]

Im making a cancel button for my registration, and I was wondering how I would get the cancel button to direct you to a diffrent page? I mean do I have to make a whole new <form action="diffrentpage.php" method="post><input type="submit" value="Cancel"></form>? Or can I do some onClick="" event? This might involve some light javascript? Im not sure, but I would prefer it was within the same form tag as the registration button, which submits the form... is that possible? Is that a good or bad idea?

i dont quite understand what ur saying but what i think you want is a button that directs you to a new page

heres what you can do
go to insert>media>flash button fill out the field EXCEPT for the link part
then ur button will appear
now go to the code and insert this code
[code]
<a href="whateverpage.php" class="style1"></a>
[/code]
that should work

i jus did it this way with inserting the code that way you can change it whenever you want to youdont have to go bak and make a new flash button.

you can also make you own buttons and click on it then fill out the link field

That doesnt make sense... I dont edit in dreamweaver or anything... I use notepad... and by button i mean, submit button, not a button in flash...

ok u dont make the button in flash its made in dreamweaver and i didnt kno u coded in notepad

nvm i figured it out
[code]
<a href="whateverpage.php"><button>Cancel</button></a>
[/code]

That is not what he means, and I would advise using <input type="button" /> not the <button> tag.

I assume you want to have a form that they can submit normally but also cancel it if they want. If you want information to send when they click cancel as well, then you cannot have 2 submit buttons, but you can use:

[code]<input tpye="button" value="Cancel" onclick="window.location='differentpage.php'" />[/code]

Hope that helps. If you do want it to send information, then let me know and you can do it with javascript.

Yes, but it will probably not validate.

Why don't you have the buttons like


[code]<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="cancel" />[/code]

Then on the page the form usually leads to, check the submit value first off and redirect if it's cancel.
