Button-hyperlink.

[opt_inf_env]

Hi,

Is it right that the following code will create a button, which being
pressed causes loading a new page (some type of hyper link).

<form actioni=new_page.php>
<input type="submit" value="Cancel">
</form>

I expected it is true. But it is not. So how then can one create
button-hyperlink?

The online validator http://www.htmlhelp.com/tools/validator/ reports:

Error: there is no attribute ACTIONI for this element (in this HTML
version)

Error: required attribute ACTION not specified

It seems that you've typed "actioni" instead of "action".

OK, thank you. It was my mistake. However, it seems to me that it is
not only mistake. I have created button-hyperlink with the usage of the
following lines:

<form action="newpage.php?id=3">
<input type="submit" value="Cancel">
</form>

But the created in such way button load "newpage.php?" (not
"newpage.php?id=3"). Do you know what I am doing wrong this time?

Why bother with a form at all? Why not just use a regular link? You can
style it to look like a button if you want, but I don't recommend it.

Trying to fix the wrong problem?
