Every form has a submit button right? Submit buttons are form elements
(whose value is submitted when the button is clicked), just like any other
form field. So I have something like this:
<INPUT NAME="submit" TYPE="submit" Value=" Click Here! ">
In my PHP code, I check the value of $submit; if it's empty, I know the form
data hasn't been submitted yet (if it had, $submit would have the value "
Click Here! "), so in that case I display the form. If it does not have an
empty value, the user has clicked the submit button, so I can go ahead
processing the form data. Like this:
if ( empty($submit) )
{
### Display the form
}
else
{
### Do some checks to make the the data is OK
### Do the Insert, or whatever else is to be done
}
