don't use HTTP_POST_VARS, and the likes, instead use $_POST, $_GET, etc.First -- thank you for reading my post.
I am using the general strategy suggested by Jay (thanks, Jay) to process my form in another procedure. It's listed below. In my processStuff.php program, I use the following code:
$attributes = array(); $attributes = array_merge($attributes,$HTTP_POST_VARS, $HTTP_GET_VARS); extract($attributes, EXTR_PREFIX_SAME, "this");
I want to load my numerous post variables into regular memory variables (or whatever the php nomenclature is) -- e.g. $_POST['action'] becomes $action. It doesn't seem to working according to the manual. I list my $HTTP_SESSION_VARS, there are none.
I would appreciate anyone taking the time to explain to me how this works. Either it's stupid or I'm stupid. I'm figuring it's me.
Monique.
<form method="post" name="form1" action="processStuff.php"> <input type="submit" name="action" value="Add Record"> <input type="submit" name="action" value="Delete Record">
In processStuff.php
<?php switch ($_POST['action']){ case "Add Record": ...do stuff... ..redirect back to original page... break;
case "Delete Record": ...do stuff... ..redirect back to original page... break;
} ?>
To do what you want, the easiest way would be to turn On the register_globals setting.
