I understood his request differently, that he wanted to send the parameters to different scripts depending on the submit button pushed.

Given this HTML form: <form action="/cgi-bin/test.cgi"> <input type="submit" name="button1" value="This is button 1"> <input type="submit" name="button2" value="This is button 2"> </form> You can use this script: #!/usr/bin/perl use CGI qw/:standard/; print header(); if ( param('button1') ) { print "Button 1 was pushed!"; } elsif ( param('button2') ) { print "Button 2 was pushed!"; } Camilo, why is that a problem? Is there inconsistencies between how browsers handle that info? I don't know of any problems with it offhand, and I have used it in the past (a long, long, time ago... nothing recent).

One idea i thougt is to give names to the buttons and in the cgi : if buton name is "buton1" { code1 } if buton name is "buton2" {code2 } how can i do that if it's possible thanx funky Istanbul -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
