Request.Form("action") in ASP in PHP ???

[Anon]

I am new on PHP, and facing troubles with event handling, what am i suppose to do to call a PHP function(ie:upload file) when a form's button is pressed?
N.B:if($name_of_the_button){myfunction();}, is not working it always giving an undefined variable name_of_the_button.

Thank you,

Since PHP is a server-side only language, it cannot respond to user-events. You would need to use javascript to do that.

If however, that button is meant to process a form, you just set the action of the form to the php scriptname and it will do the rest.

e.g.
<FORM ACTION="myscript.php">
