Hi,
I would like to have 2 buttons in the same form and each button have an
different action.
by example:
One button is to "Preview the request"
The other is to "Confirm the request"


Thank you

well have 1 button submit to a DB or pl file to "submit" the form, and
the other to store the information temporarily and spew it out in
pph/asp or cgi file and then that page has a submit...

Try something along the lines of this:

<input type="submit" name="action" value="Preview the request" />
<input type="submit" name="action" value="Confirm the request" />

Only the value of the submit button the user has clicked will be sent along
with the other form data, so it's just a matter of checking in your script
code which value has been passed for the name you gave your submit button
(in the example, the form field "action").

Sorry but my question was bad.

I have a form like this:

<form name="form1" method="post" action="send_email_groupe.php">
<textarea name="contenu" cols="100" rows="20"></textarea>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Modifier">
</form>

You can see that there is only ONE action possible for this form. It is
"send_email_groupe.php"

Then, I would like to have 2 actions into the same form with 2 buttons
inside (One to prewiew and the other to confirm).
I hope you anderstand me because my English is not very good.

How to do that.
Thank you.

Then, I would like to have 2 actions into the same form with 2 buttons
inside (One to prewiew and the other to confirm).

So modify send_email_groupe.php to do different things depending on
which button was pressed (obviously you need to give the two buttons
different names).

Thank you !!
I didn't know that the name of the button was trasfer as parameter to the
target URL.

Thank you, that's works.
