Help with DB admin page

[Percadan]

The main admin page has a form that calls itself.
(List | Add | Remove | Edit)

The form script looks like this:

<form name="admin" action="admin_main.php" method=post>
<p align="left">
<input type="Image" src="/img_src/text_listcontacts.jpg" name="list">&nbsp;

<input type="Image" src="/img_src/text_addcontacts.jpg" name="add">&nbsp;

<input type="Image" src="/img_src/text_searchcontacts.jpg" name="search">&nbsp;

<input type="Image" src="/img_src/text_removecontacts.jpg" name="remove">&nbsp;
</p>
</form>

Here is where I need help:

So far the code looks something like this:

<?php
include ('../lib/header_admin.html');

if($add)
{
echo "<tr><td>";
include ('input_public.php');
}

else
{
include ('../lib/form_admin.html');
}

include ('../lib/footer_admin.html');
?>

I know this seems elementry but I am used to PERL

I believe I just answered my own question, but any comments or suggestions would be great.

If im not mistaken I didnt even see a "Question" in your original post. You did not say what your are having problems with.

[Percadan]

I guess my question is.

Does the input type "Image" post like a submit button does

And will the condition statement look like:

if($<name value of the form's input statement>)

rather than if($submit) has it does when using a submit button?

[batman]

Yes that will submit just like a submit button would. Yes you can also do it something like this:

if($add == "add")
{
//do something here when add button is pushed
}

<input type="Image" src="/img_src/text_addcontacts.jpg" name="add" value="add">

Thanks.

That's kind of what I was thinking, but I tought there would be a more efficient or stylish way of doing it.

Works for me though!
