Help please!

I'm struggling sending the information from one page to the next!

I have two textboxs on the page that I wish to send the data to the next page.

This is my code, but i'm fairly new to this and not sure what is wrong

<form name="form1" method="post" action="response_time_actions.php">
<div align="center">
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span class="rowColumnTitle style2">Description:</span><span class="style2"> This tool will bring up the current response time of the service that you enter and on which Unix box you enter. </span></p>

<p align="center">&nbsp;</p>
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">
<table width="53%" border="1">
<tr>
<td width="170" height="41"><strong><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Please Enter : </font></strong>
<tr >
<td align="center"><label>Unix Box
<input type="text" name="textfield">
</label></td>

<td><label>Service
<input type="text" name="textfield2">
</label>
<div align="center"></div></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="center" colspan="1"><input name="button" type="button" onClick="window.location.reload()" value="Refresh This Page"></td>

</tr>
<td colspan="2" align="center"><p>
<input name="submit" type="submit" value="Execute Command 22" method="POST" onClick="window.open('response_time_actions.php',' RESPONSETIME','width=460,height=600,resizable=yes, status=yes'); return false" >
</p>

</td>
</tr>

</table>
<br>
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> </font>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
</div>
</form>

and what does your php page look like?

maybe it's not recieving anything because you make a window.open statement but doesn't really post anything to it

<script language="javascript">
function submitFunction()
{
   var newWindow = window.open('','mywindow','width=600,height=400');
  document.getElementById('my_form').submit();
}
</script>
<form id="my_form" action="your_page.php" target="mywindow">
<!-- your form stuff here -->
<input type="button" name="submit" value="your button value" onclick="submitFunction()"/>
</form>
 

this way you open the window, and afterwards submits the form

in theory this should work ;)

btw, if you want to reset a form, instead of reloading the page (which takes up unnescessary bandwidth and keeps the user waiting) you can use:

<input type="reset" value="reset form"/>
