two form actions with the same data

[Anon]

can somebody help me with a little problem i've got.

I'm trying to accomplish the following:

two different form actions with the same input fields.

<form action="followup1.php" method="post">
<form action="followup2.php" method="post">

input fields............

</form>
</form>

submitbutton(form1) submitbutton(form2)

Please if you know any way of doing this help me out cause this has been standing in my way for a long time

Don't nest your forms, try this ...

<form action="followup1.php" method="post">
input fields............
</form>

<form action="followup2.php" method="post">
input fields............
</form>

the problem is that each of the forms should operate with the SAME input fields.

they type in name, email address, etc one and then have the option to send me an email through an affiliate mail system (one button action=mail.php3) or to go to a page which interprets these fields into a contract (second button action=contract.php3

You cannot nest forms, they can't share fields. You could maybe use JS to read the value of the fields in question and submit them.

Or maybe you could have two buttons with different values assigned to each. Have the form point to the same script and run a certain part of the code depending on the value that is submitted.

if (IsSet($mailprintsel))
{
if ($mailprintsel==002)
{
$optionvalue1="<option value=\"002\" selected>Compleet info pakket";
$optionvalue2="<option value=\"003\">Alleen een contract";
}

if ($mailprintsel==003)
{
$optionvalue1="<option value=\"003\" selected>Alleen een contract";
$optionvalue2="<option value=\"002\">Compleet info pakket";
}

print $optionvalue1;
print $optionvalue2;
}
else
{
print("<option value=\"001\">Maak eerst een keuze</option>");
print ("<option value=\"002\">Compleet informatie pakket</option>");
print("<option value=\"003\">Alleen een contract</option>");
}

if ($mailprintsel==002)
