Multiple forms on a single page, how do you tell which form has been submitted?

Hi,

In your form tag, set the name field differently for each form.
This is particularly useful for javascript.
Also you can name the submit buttons differently if that is easier for you.
Then on the page you submit to you can reference by the form name or button name.

<form name="form1" action..........><input type="submit" name="submit1"></form>
<form name="form2" action..........><input type="submit" name="submit2"></form>
<form name="form3" action..........><input type="submit" name="submit3"></form>

Hope this helps.

And you would write what on the action page FORM.submit1 etc.? and it will take?

I would use different 'action' pages.  Then if they need to end up on the same page, redirect them.

If i try and reference the #FORM.submit1# I get an undefined error. In other words it is not picking up the name of the submit button. Nor will it pick up the name of the form either.

Hi ,
Can you output this variable?
#form.formfields#

This should give you a list of all the fields.  Although, if they do not click the submit button it will not come through.

Ahh yeah.... I did not have form set to post... I'm an idiot! Thanks for your help

Instead of the elseif's can I use your method on switch statements? Which is quicker or more efficient?
