Multiple submit procedures in a form

[JohnnyT]

I'm writing a form that allows for editing of text files for posting on a website. I have the form with fields like 'title' and 'body' etc. I want four buttons called 'Update', 'Preview', 'Delete' and 'Create New'.
I can't have four different submit buttons for the one form and, ideally, I want the form info 'posting' back to the script itself to process. Any ideas how I would go about this? Preferably without using Javascript.

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers ;-)

If you are accepting free text, be sure you read up a little on CGI security. Opening pipes or system commands or the like with inputs from the text fields can be dangerous.

you can name your submits just like any other input type, then just check for which one was used.

If you are new to Tek-Tips, please use descriptive titles, check the FAQs, and beware the evil typo.
