  • 0

I have a php file which has one form and 2 submit buttons, onclick of 1 button it has to pass the value selected from a dropdown list. It is not passing the value to the php file which accepts POST data. But if I have only 1 button and the same form, this works fine.
Pl find my code below.

<html>
<head>
<title>Invoice Printing</title>

<script type="text/javascript">
function showlink() 
{
window.open('invoiceprint2.php');
} 

function showlink3() 
{
window.open('invoiceprint3.php');
}   

</script>

</head>
<body>
<table width="100%"  border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#026465">
  <tr>
    <td><div align="center"><span class="style1"> Amogh Gases Private Ltd <br></span>
<center class="style5">INVOICE PRINTING</center>
<br><br>
<br>

</td>
  </tr>
</table>

$result = mysql_query("SELECT Invno FROM INVHDR", $con);
