submit or continue

[light-angel]

im building a form in php and is their away to have a submit or continue button on the same page so if ya want to fill in more it will go to the next page if not it will e-mail the info

[Muddy_Funster]

Yes.  The easiest would be to use a checkbox/radio button to choose the option, and then have the php that proccess the first page of the form check that value first and decide what to do.

[light-angel]

so would it be something like this?

 

<script type="text/javascript">

<!--

function goToSite(yn) {

if(yn=='yes') {

location.href='/email.php';

}

else {

location.href='/page10.php';

}

}

//-->

</script>

 

<form action="#">

<div>

<input type="radio" name="ES" value="yes" onclick="goToSite(this.value)"><label>Yes</label>

<input type="radio" name="ES" value="no" onclick="goToSite(this.value)"><label> No</label>

</div>

</form>

If you want to do it in javascript, sure something like that would probably get the job done just fine - assuming the EU has java enabled on their browser.  you can also use PHP on the form action page to say

<?php 
if ($_POST['flag'] == 'TRUE'){
include_once "page2.php";
}
else
{
//mail script goes here
include_once "thankUser.php";
}
?>

just tryed this

 

<?php

if(!empty($_POST["radio_A/B"]))

{

header('location: $_POST["radio_A/B"]');

exit;

}

?>

<form action="#" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"><br>

A<input type="radio" name="radio_A/B" value="pageX.php">

B<input type="radio" name="radio_A/B" value="pageZ.php">

<input type="submit" value="Continue" />

</form>

 

and all it dose is show the pagename with a # after it and not going to the page

 

sorry if im being stupid

[Muddy_Funster]

<input type="radio" name="radio_A/B" value="TRUE" />I want to answer More Questions!<br />

should work with

<?php
if($_POST['radio_A/B'] == 'TRUE')
{
header('location: '.$_POST['radio_A/B']);
exit;
}

 

I think the problem was mainly that you had used double quotes inside the POST[] square brackets.  be carefull using the header redirect as well, you can easily loose your information bouncing through too many pages without using sessions to keep it in.

You need to change the # in the forms HTML action attribute to the URL of the PHP script you want the post data sent to.

 

So instead of:

 

<form action="#" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">

 

it would be:

 

<form action="http://www.example.com/handleform.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">

<?php
if($_POST['radio_A/B'] == 'TRUE')
{
header('location: '.$_POST['radio_A/B']);
exit;
}
?>
<form action="send.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"><br>

</form>

 

doing it like that if i select the radio button or not it goes str8 to the send.php but i want it so if its checked goes to the learn1.php

and i have got secions saved @ the top of the script

[Muddy_Funster]

you need to set the <form action"" to point to the current page, not to send.php.  setting it to send.php just takes you directly to it.  Use an else{} after the if to move to the send.php in the event that the radio button is not selected.
