Two Buttons in Form

[joetadalan]

I am trying to use the following code and having problems with how to get it to work -

<FORM ACTION=&quot;

http://ssl.somewebsite.com/addcart2.cfm?urlloc=http://www.somewebsite.com/gokartframe.cfm&quot;

METHOD=POST>
<INPUT TYPE = &quot;hidden&quot; NAME = &quot;code&quot; VALUE = &quot;AZ3502&quot;>
<INPUT TYPE = &quot;hidden&quot; NAME = &quot;name&quot; VALUE = &quot;Frame with Steering Hoop&quot;>
<INPUT TYPE = &quot;hidden&quot; NAME = &quot;price&quot; VALUE = &quot;119.50&quot;>
<INPUT TYPE = &quot;hidden&quot; NAME = &quot;shpcost&quot; VALUE = &quot;25.75&quot;>
<INPUT TYPE = &quot;hidden&quot; NAME = &quot;wt&quot; VALUE = &quot;1&quot;>
<b>Qty:</b>
<SELECT NAME=&quot;qty&quot;>
<option value=&quot;0&quot;>
<OPTION value=&quot;1&quot;>1
<OPTION value=&quot;2&quot;>2
<OPTION value=&quot;3&quot;>3
<OPTION value=&quot;4&quot;>4
<OPTION value=&quot;5&quot;>5
</SELECT>
<INPUT TYPE=&quot;image&quot; src=&quot;graphics/add.gif&quot; width=28 height=20 border=0>
<br>
-------------------------------------------------
??

</form>

I have tried the following code in place of the ?? -

<INPUT TYPE=&quot;image&quot; src=&quot;graphics/addwishlist.jpg&quot; border=0
OnClick=&quot;???&quot;>
Not sure what should go here or even if this possible.

Also tried the following in place of ?? -
<a href=&quot;newpage.cfm&quot;><img src=&quot;graphics/addwishlist.jpg border=0></a>

What I am trying to do is use the form above and not have to create a new form to use the form variables and depending on which button you pick is what page will appear next. I do not want to change the code that is above the line if at all possible.

Is this a viable solution or could someone point me to a reference for something similar to this.

Thanks

I forgot when I try and use
<a href=&quot;newpage.cfm> ... the newpage.cfm does not know about the variable in the form - I tried putting the form inside of a CFOUTPUT Tag.

I also tried to pass the variables using
<a href=&quot;newpage.cfm?code=#Code# ...>
This does not work - when newpage.cfm is displayed - I either receive the error that Code is not defined or in the Address at the top of my browser I see this -

http://...

newpage.cfm?code=#Code

are you trying to use multiple submit images? click one and get one action, or click the other and get a different action?

unfortunately, the action is determined by the FORM ACTION, and this means a form can only be sent to one place

so what you have to do is write the action template to detect which image button was clicked

make sure you supply a NAME parameter to each of the INPUT images so that the action template can detect which one was clicked

R937 -

I thought thats what the solution would be but I am trying to leave this code unchanged because this code is everywhere on our site -

<FORM ACTION=&quot;

http://ssl.somewebsite.com/addcart2.cfm?urlloc=http://www.somewebsite.com/gokartframe.cfm&quot;;

METHOD=POST>
<INPUT TYPE = &quot;hidden&quot; NAME = &quot;code&quot; VALUE = &quot;AZ3502&quot;>
<INPUT TYPE = &quot;hidden&quot; NAME = &quot;name&quot; VALUE = &quot;Frame with Steering Hoop&quot;>
<INPUT TYPE = &quot;hidden&quot; NAME = &quot;price&quot; VALUE = &quot;119.50&quot;>
<INPUT TYPE = &quot;hidden&quot; NAME = &quot;shpcost&quot; VALUE = &quot;25.75&quot;>
<INPUT TYPE = &quot;hidden&quot; NAME = &quot;wt&quot; VALUE = &quot;1&quot;>
<b>Qty:</b>
<SELECT NAME=&quot;qty&quot;>
<option value=&quot;0&quot;>
<OPTION value=&quot;1&quot;>1
<OPTION value=&quot;2&quot;>2
<OPTION value=&quot;3&quot;>3
<OPTION value=&quot;4&quot;>4
<OPTION value=&quot;5&quot;>5
</SELECT>
<INPUT TYPE=&quot;image&quot; src=&quot;graphics/add.gif&quot; width=28 height=20 border=0>
<br>

Would it be possible to use the other solution I am trying with the -
<a href=&quot;newpage.cfm?code=#Code# ...><img src=&quot;...> </a>

I can get the above to work, the only problem is the newpage.cfm does not seem to know about the form variables - is this not possible or do I have to add some other code to get the form variables passed to the new page ?

Thanks for your help in advance
Joe

no problem (assuming there's a </FORM> tag somewhere)

however, you would still have to add a NAME parameter to the existing image button

otherwise, the action page won't be able to detect it

(note: i have not done a two-submit-button form myself)

as for the <a href> technique, i don't think you will ever get that to submit the form fields
