I want to clarify the concept of submitting the form to the web server.
PHP is just an example here, it applies to any web programming
languages.
On page1.php,
<form name="myform" action="otherpage.php" method="post">
means 2 steps here:
1) submit the form called "myform" on page1.php to the web server using
HTTP POST method.
2) open otherpage.php
Also, otherpage.php can be page1.php itself, that means post the page
to itself, or this is called POST BACK.
Is that correct? Please advise & comment.
Thanks!!
Hi struts,
Please do not post to a zillion newsgroups.
That is annoying.
And now I am annoying everybody in groups I never visit too by replying to
them all.
It is a common mistake to expect faster answers by posting to all groups
that possibly might have something to do with your problem.
Many people get irritated when you do that, as you maybe noticed.
If you post to 1 active group, you will get your answer.
Posting to many groups will lead to broken threads, and thus discussions
become impossible to follow.
Especially simple questions like this one will be answered in no time in any
respectable group..
