Multiple submit buttons not working

LaFemmeG

I am trying to set up a script where the user is submitted to a different page depending upon button hit. Used code according to previous posts here. Looks right, but not working. User goes to blank page with the url for the php script. Can you take a look and see what the problem might be. I am a newbie and having trouble figuring out what's wrong. Portion of Code is below.


 $fp = fopen($array['filename'],"a"); 



if($fp){ 


fwrite($fp,$final_data);   //Write information to the file 

fclose($fp);      // Close the file 


mail ($mailto, $mailsubject, $email_data, "From: <$mailfrom>");  //send mail


// send autoresponse to registrant

mail ($array[Email],$mailsubject,"Thank you for registering for the 2007 Summer Jamboree Dance Camp.  If you have not already submitted your payment online through PayPal, please send us your registration payment as soon as possible.", "From: <$mailfrom>");

// send to page based on submit button

if ($_POST['submit']){			

header("Location: $continue");

} elseif($_POST['submit_pay']){ 

header("Location: $continue_pay");

} else {

header("Location: $error");

}

}

The form is in html. Buttons are named submit & submit_pay. $continue and $continue_pay are the urls I want them to go to. Any help greatly appreciated.

Where does $array['filename'] come from and is its content correct? If the file can't be opened, then nothing else in the script happens and you get ... a blank page.

Thanks for replying, Weedpacket. Yes, this script posts user input to an excel file and then emails the content. Everything was working fine until I tried putting in multiple buttons. Now nothing happens.

Could it be that I need to alter this code at the top of the php file?

if($_POST){          

   $array = $_POST; 
} else { 
      echo "You must Access this file through a form.";   // If someone accesses the file directly, it wont work :) 
}

Well, I've posted all I can say based on what I've seen (I may have missed something due to the way the code is formatted, though). You have verified, I presume, that $_POST contains what it should.

I would recommend, however, that you set error_reporting to E_ALL during development; there are a number of places where something could potentially fall through the cracks and the messages you'll get from error reporting can alert you to them. (Incidentally, uploaded files are in the $FILES array, not the $POST array).
