Multiple forms POST vs GET

[barryp]

Hi
Can anyone see the problem here ?
If I click on the submit in the first form I get the hidden datafield value=1 sent to my editHotel.php script.
HOWEVER if I use method=GET it works !!!
BUT I want method=POST please.

<table border="1">
<tr>
<td>name</td>
<td>tel</td>
<td>postcode</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Hotel Prima</td>
<td>09990888</td>
<td>sa56dd</td>
<td><form action="editHotel.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="editHotel" target="_self">
<input name="hotelID" type="hidden" value="2">
<input name="edit" type="submit" value="Edit">
</form></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Hotel Splendide</td>
<td>10292423394</td>
<td>sa2 8ac</td>
<td><form action="editHotel.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="editHotel" target="_self">
<input name="hotelID" type="hidden" value="1">
<input name="edit" type="submit" value="Edit">
</form></td>
</tr>
</table>

This is a PHP question and as such should be addressed in the PHP forum: forum434. But i will try to answer it here anyway.

From your php page instead of doing $_GET['HotelID'] to get the value from your form do $_POST['HotelID']

Unknown has caused an Unknown Error on Unknown and must be shutdown to prevent damage to Unknown.

Thanks - how did you know ? Iam trying to learn DreanWeaver & didn't know until I looked at the code it produced that it was expecting a GET not a POST !

It was a simple matter of deductive reasoning. In any case glad you sorted it out.
