How come an user can modify a hidden field is more likely to change submit button? I don't think an average user will modify anything at all. >>> Also worth noting, you can only successfully check for the name="submit" >>> value if there is only one submit button in your form, as that is then >>> the default (and only) submit that the form can use, so it uses that.

Please > point out if you think otherwise As everbody has been telling you, if you check an hidden field it will work regardless whether the user clicked on a button or hit enter on a text input. With multiple buttons there is no way (except for using some Javascript) to tell whether it was clicked a button or the user hit enter in a text input. -- Regards, Manuel Lemos Find and post PHP jobs http://www.phpclasses.org/jobs/ PHP Classes - Free ready to use OOP components written in PHP http://www.phpclasses.org/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
