The button is generally *not* sent by the browser if you hit enter instead of submit. This *will* happen, so you have to deal with it. If you want to knwo what button was pressed, you have to have different button names or values and check them. A button is just another form element that is submitted. -- DB_DataObject_FormBuilder - The database at your fingertips http://pear.php.net/package/DB_DataObject_FormBuilder paperCrane --Justin Patrin-- -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
