assuming you're use post method.
- assuming that you have (in the form):
<input type=text name='txt'>
after submit you will have
$_POST['txt'] varialble set.
i guess
if( isset($_POST['txt)) {
}
change the 'txt' with whatever you have there.
- make your own submit...
insert <input type="hidden" name='submit' value=1>
in the form.
and then ask:
if( $_POST['submit'] == 1 ) {
}
