Hi! I'm hoping someone here can help me out.
I'm trying to use an image as a submit button which in turn loads a php script. Here's what I have HTML File: CODE <html> <head> <title>No title</title> <meta name="generator"> </head> <body bgcolor="white" text="black" link="blue" vlink="purple" alink="red"> <form name="form1" method="post" action="post.php"> <p> </p> <table border="1" width="407"> <tr> <td width="200"> <p><input type="text" name="name"></p> </td> <td width="191"> <p><input type="text" name="pwd"></p> <p><input type="image" name"submit_btn" src="button1.jpg" alt"Submit"></p> <p></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="397" colspan="2"><input type="submit" name="submit_btn"></td> </tr> </table> </form> <p> </p> </body> </html> And here's what i have for the php: CODE <?php if(isset($_POST['submit_btn'])) { $username = $_POST['name']; $password = $_POST['pwd']; $text = $username . "," . $password . "\n"; $fp = fopen('data.txt', 'a+'); if(fwrite($fp, $text)) { echo 'saved'; } fclose ($fp); } ?> <html> It works fine with a standard Submit button. I would really appreciate any little bit of help you can offer! |

From https://www.php.net/manual/en/language.vari...nal.form.submit:
"<input type="image" src="image.gif" name="sub" /> ...so when the PHP script checks for CODE $_POST['submit_btn'] it never returns true. The print_r() function should reveal this.  |

¡Ay caramba! I don't understand that. What has the conversion of periods to underscores in those coordinate variables to do with the form not being submitted? Those variables aren't even used by the script that I can see.

Ay, I get it. I didn't realize the OPs script actually looks for submit_btn.
