Question

The php page is called page.php; this pages has 2 submit forms on it: form1 and form2. When one of the form’s submit button is pressed what in the HTML header with identify which form was submitted?

Answer 1

I don’t believe that it does post any identification. The easiest way to have your code know which form posted is to put a hidden field in each form identifying the form like this:

<form id="form1">
  <input type="hidden" name="formName" value="form1"/>
  <input type="submit" value="submit" />
</form>
<form id="form2">
  <input type="hidden" name="formName" value="form2"/>
  <input type="submit" value="submit" />
</form>
