Hi,

I guess there are few ways to achieve this but it depends on how you wish to do it / how complex it is.

The simplest way is to assign the <form> (which the submit button is within) to a specified action URL.

This goes like this (HTML):

Code:

<form action="http://www.example.com" method="post">
    <div>
        <!-- ...form elements, fields, labels etc... -->
        <input type="submit" value="Submit" /> 
        <input type="reset" value="Reset" />
    </div>
</form>

change www.example.com to desired URL.

What exactly do you want the form to do?

you are going to need to provide someone the code in order to help resolve this. Does the page give off a on page confirmation when there has been a successful submission?

This is form page Untitled Form at the bottom of this page ..their is SUBMIT button...when someone click on that ..it'll redirect to Login


Please suggest me

You did not follow the instructions that Aziz gave you. It submits to the same form because you did not specify where it should go. action= should specify where the page needs to be directed when someone clicks on the submit button.

Hey:

I have several "submit" buttons on a form. I want users to be able to hit the "enter" key to submit the form. The page used to "post" the information checks for specifically what form button was pushed to submit the form before executing the appropriate code. I am automatically submitting the page when the enter key is hit, but it is defaulting to the first option of executed code in the post page.

For the submit buttons you can assign a different "value" for each one and then detect it in the PHP of the web page.

Then redirect the visitor to the required page before any HTML has been sent to the browser.

For example:

PHP Code:

if (isset($_POST['action'])) {
    switch ($_POST['action']) {
        case 'action1':
            header( 'Location: http://yoursite.com/page1.php' );
            break;
        case 'action2':
            header( 'Location: http://yoursite.com/page2.php' );
            break;
    }
} 


So in your submit buttons you have value="action1" etc. And the form initially submits back to the same page. Then the PHP code handles the redirection.

Another way is to use Javascript with onClick events for each button redirecting the browser.
