Re: [PHP-WIN] how do i send a request by pressing a button

[Luis Ferro]

You have a load of options but all depend on either frames, iframes or 
url's or anything that has the ability to call a file from the server 
like flash, java and the like... You need a technology that allows you 
to transpose from the client-side - the browser - to the server side - 
the php page.

With frames, you can point a form submit button to a page that opens the 
php file that creates the file on the server and then presents the 
success and or insuccess of it.

With iframes, you can use javascript to change the source document of 
the iframe to the same php file. The same goes to replace the source of 
an image (which can be changed to the same page, if the page in the end 
sends correctly an image).

With java and flash you can do the same... In flash for instance, you 
can either process it directly by making the button a flash file, or 
using javascript to order flash to do get the php page (and thrus 
creating your file)...

There are much more options ;)

Cheers,
Luis Ferro
