Submit buttons and my balding head

[brokenlink]

many people think that perhaps I am sick because I am so young and have a strange bald spot on my head. However, this is not the case. While doing a recent project regarding e-learning I attempted to create a website. Everything was going fine until I wanted to tell the little Submit button to do two simple tasks:

1) Send the data that learners have selected on my form to my email, and
2) to navigate to a pre-specified page.

I can get the Submit button to email the data to me, although it is in a hard to read format or, not and sad.gif, navigate to the next page.

While attempting to diagnose this conundrum I began to to lose hair.

If anyone could bless me with their wisdom, this young padawan would be greatly appreciative.

If not to impress all with your infinite wisdom, then to please save my hair!

BTW: I am writing in php and html

😕

The Force may be strong, but not strong enough for telepathy to function via TCP/IP. Ergo, we have no idea how you're doing what you're doing now.

First, how are you identifying in PHP that the submit button has been clicked?

Once you've verified that, an outline of what your PHP script does goes:

1. Arrange the submitted data into a format you're happy with

2. use mail() to email it to yourself

3. use header() to direct the browser to the next page

4. use exit() to finish processing this page

Thank you for the reply.

We were able to get it to work.

Cheers.
