I don't use iUI, it seems you shouldn't be either (for this at least). > My form looks like this: > <form id="someid" title="Item" class="panel" method="post" > action="index.php"> > <h2>...</h2> > <fieldset> > ... > </fieldset> > > <input type='submit' name='s1' value='s1' /> > <input type='submit' name='s2' value='s2' /> > <a class="whiteButton" type="submit" name='a1'>a1</a> > <a class="whiteButton" type="submit" name='a2'>a2</a> You should use inputs for submit buttons, not A elements. That way, only the one that is clicked on will be succssful and it will be the only one sent to the server. The type attribute should not be used this way - it is intended as a hint to the browser regarding the content (MIME) type that will be returned by a link. If the browser doesn't understand the type, it may ignore the link. I suppose iUI wants it that way - regardless, it is bad design. > </form> > > A form with 4 buttons is displayed.

Likely because the wrong data is being sent to it. > What am I doing wrong? Using script where a plain form would be better? :-) -- Rob
