[SOLVED] Calling functions from a Form Button?

Recommended Posts

Is it possible to call a function from a Form button, as I have a function that auto creates a form and I pass the values to it.  Since doing this I can not reset the form as it reads the values and re-puts them back in.  Is there a way to call a function or some other way to reset the form.

 

I use the same page for all the changes using Switch to display different things.

 

Here's the scripting for the function...

 

<?php

 

# This function creates a form to [fill in/view] what you have just submitted.

# syntax submitit($wording,$sectionbit,$titlebit,$bodybit,$namebit)

# $wording = "sentence above form that describes form below";

# $sectionbit = At What section is next when submitted NULL (default) > Preview_News > Submitted > Delete_News_Sure > Delete_Complete > Modify_News > Preview_Mod_News > Modify_News_Sure > Modify_Complete

# $titlebit = Displays the variable stored in $titlebit in a text box.

# $bodybit = Displays the variable stored in $bodybit in a textbox.

# $namebit = Displays the variable stored in $namebit in a textbox.

# $submitbutton = Changes the text of the Submit button to this.

# $resetbutton = Changes the text of the Reset button to this.

 

function submitit($wording,$sectionbit,$titlebit,$bodybit,$namebit,$submitbutton,$resetbutton)    {

        echo    "<font size='-1'><div align='center' class='mainsection'>$wording<br></div></font>";

        echo    "<form name='start' action='admin_news.php?SectionAt=$sectionbit' method='POST'>\n

                        <table width='500' align='center'>\n";

                        $timenow=DATE('Y-m-d H:i:s');

                        echo "<input type='hidden' name='dateNews' value='$timenow'></td></tr>\n

                                <tr><td size='80'><font size='-1'>Title :</font></td><td> <input class='formit' type='text' size='50' maxlength='255' name='titleNews' value='$titlebit'></td></tr>\n

                                <tr><td size='80'><font size='-1'>Body :</font></td><td> <textarea class='formit' cols=38 rows=5 wrap='hard' name='bodyNews' maxlength='255'>$bodybit</textarea></td></tr>\n

                                <tr><td size='80'><font size='-1'>Author :</font></td><td> <input class='formit' type='text' size='20' maxlength='20' name='firstName' value='$namebit'></td> </tr>\n

                                <tr><td colspan='2'><center><input class='formitBUTTON' type='reset' Value=$resetbutton>      <input class='formitBUTTON' type='submit' value=$submitbutton></center></td></tr>\n

                        </table>\n

                </form>\n";

        return;

}

 

?php>

 

Thank you all for the help.
