Can anyone show me how to call a function when submit is pressed or a form is submitted.
"When submit is pressed"... as in instantly / on the web browser's side? You need Javascript for that; PHP simply won't do that.
Or did you mean "when a form gets posted to the server"? Because you can run just about anything in the target script when it receives a $_POST['your_submit'] value...
I am for an alternative to $php_self which refreshes the whole page. I want to run the function which displays the errors on a form and only do a $php_self when the form is filled out correctly.
Based on this, sounds like you want some Javascript to do the error checking.
thanks
