I have Two forms in my index.php and am trying to
get them to submit and POST their data seperatly
Form 1
echo '<form action="process.php?type=news" method="post">';
echo '<table cellspacing="0"><tr><th>';
echo 'Add News to News Feed';
echo '</th></tr><tr><td>';
echo 'Title:<br /><input name="newstitle" type="text" id="add" style="height:16px;width:525px;" size="80" maxlength="186" /><br />';
echo 'Main Body Text:<br /><textarea name="newsfeed" id="add" style="width:525px;height:78px;" maxlength="2000" ></textarea>';
echo '<input style="float:right;margin-top:5px;" id="button" type="submit" value="Submit" />';
echo '</td></tr></table></from>';
And Form 2
echo '<form action="process.php?type=suggest" method="post">';
echo '<table cellspacing="0"><tr><th>';
echo 'Suggest Additions to the Intranet';
echo '</th></tr><tr><td>';
echo '<textarea name="suggest" id="add" style="width:330px;height:60px;" maxlength="800" ></textarea>';
echo '<input style="float:right;margin-top:5px;" id="button" type="submit" value="Submit" />';
echo '</td></tr></table></from>';
I want these both to post and do the action after pressing the submit button, but currently the second form submit to the first forms action
How can i fix this???
EDIT: Also i am using .PHP for both the index and process page then using it to echo the forms onto the page
Also here is the process.php data
$type=$_REQUEST['type'];
$suggest=$_POST['suggest'];
$newstitle=$_POST['newstitle'];
$news=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['newsfeed']);
if ($type == "news")
{
$sql=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM newsfeed WHERE title = ('$newstitle')");
$number_of_rows = mysql_num_rows($sql);
if ($number_of_rows > 0)
{
echo 'This Title is Already Taken';
}
else
{
$sql="INSERT INTO newsfeed (title, news) VALUES ('$newstitle','$news')";
if (!mysql_query($sql,$con))
{
die('Error: ' . mysql_error());
}
header('Location: index.php');
exit;
}
}
elseif ($type == "suggest")
{
$sql="INSERT INTO suggestions VALUES ('$suggest')";
if (!mysql_query($sql,$con))
{
die('Error: ' . mysql_error());
}
header('Location: index.php');
exit;
}
