[SOLVED] Forward POST-variables

[lindm]

I have a form which should be submitted with either of two actions. Tried with javascript but this seems unreliable. Now looking at php and a processor page as the action of the form (process.php) which then sends the user to the different actionpages...can't figure out how to forward the post-variables to the different pages...

 

Example process.php

<?php
  if(array_key_exists('goto1', $_REQUEST))
  {
   CODE FOR GOTO goto1.php
  }
  else if(array_key_exists('goto2', $_REQUEST))
  {
CODE FOR goto2.php  
}

?>

It depends on how you're selecting which action? Do you have two submit buttons? A drop down? What?

[lindm]

Yes two different submit buttons with the name/id goto1 and goto2.

So on the top of your processing page, do print_r($_POST); and click on one of the buttons. See what it says. Then go back and click on the other, and see what it says now.

 

Also, make sure they have values as well. value="action1" and value="action2"

[lindm]

Well it shows

 

[goto1] => Value1

 

So ID/NAME => Buttonvalue

 

Would the code be more like

<?php
  if($_POST[goto1]=Value1)
  {
  CODE TO POST $_POST to goto1.php
  }
  else if($_POST[goto2]=Value2))
  {
  CODE TO POST $_POST to goto2.php
}

?>

 

 

[Jessica]

<?php
if(isset($_POST['goto1']){
//do the first
}else{
//do the second
}
?>[code]

[/code]

[lindm]

Alright, what should //do the first

be replaced by?

 

 

[Jessica]

oh for pete's sake. Your code! That you want to use if they press the first button!

[MmmVomit]

Well it shows

 

[goto1] => Value1

 

So ID/NAME => Buttonvalue

 

Would the code be more like

<?php
  if($_POST[goto1]=Value1)
  {
  CODE TO POST $_POST to goto1.php
  }
  else if($_POST[goto2]=Value2))
  {
  CODE TO POST $_POST to goto2.php
}

?>

You could use redirects to "goto1.php" and "goto2.php", but I think a better solution would be to simply implement all the functionality you're looking for in one page.

Was hoping to find an easy php solution but got my javscript working now:

function changeAction(){
        var x=document.forms.form
        x.action="writeformsie.php"
        document.form.submit();
    }
