add,edit & delete buttons???

[harishsai]

hai all,

can anyone suggest on how to go about it.

like in vb, I wanted to use 3 buttons which do different actions

like add,edit & delete.

for add data, I submit the form (javascript is used to chek form details) to a php file where it adds data to my backend,

but for edit & delete button how am I to proceed with.

like onclick event of the button it should go & get data or value from the the form's textbox1 and proceed to another php file where it can allow the to edit the data as we do in VB

can I do this way????, if not how I need to do this way.

You can have more than one button to submit a form, and the "action=" doesn't have to be the same on each.
A little bit out of PHP, but I used Java to do it.

function goNow(target) {
if (target==1) action=thistarget.php;
if (target==2) action=thattarget.php;
if(target==3) action=theothertarget.php;

document.formname.submit();
}

<code snipped to get to this...>

<input type=button value="Button 1" onclick=goNow(1)>
<input type=button value="button 2" onclick=goNow(2)>
<input type=button value="button 3" onclick=goNow(3)>

You get the basic idea ?
