Give your submit buttons names and values, then you can check the button
element's value as submitted and made available in $_POST.
i.e. -
In your HTML (notice the button /names/ are the same) :
<form name="form1" action="" method="POST">
<input type="submit" name="submitButton" value="form1">
</form>
<form name="form2" action="" method="POST">
<input type="submit" name="submitButton" value="form2">
</form>
And in your PHP:
if( $_POST['submitButton'] == "form1" ){
// do something for form 1;
} elseif( $_POST['submitButton'] == "form2" ){
// do something for form 2;
} else {
// some tardnugget is playing games with your form ;)
}
There are several variations on this ... hope this one helps.
g.luck,
