one html form to call different functions in a single script

I want to make a database script with several functions, such as
adding entries, amending, listing etc.

I know how to make a submit button call a php script, but not
particular functions within that script. I dont suppose I have to
write a mini script for each function ?

Big question.

The simplest way to do this without any javascript is to have multiple
submit buttons. Try this code:

<?php echo "the value was: ".$_POST["subber"]; ?>
<form action="submits.php" method="post">
<button type="submit" name="subber" value="hiken">Hi Ken</button>
<button type="submit" name="subber" value="theval">The Value</button>
</form>

To find further tricks, suggest you read the HTML spec on the <button>
element, and read Netscape's material on javascript.
