RE: [PHP-DB] Value of $_POST['submit']

Hi Steve, 

He's using Ajax, so some variant of the XMLHttpRequest Javascript object on
the client. It may not be obvious which method is used when the data is sent.

Now that I think of it, printing $_SERVER[REQUEST_METHOD] should let you know
which one is being used.

hth.

When I'm developing a number of pages and don't keep track of every
variable or form name (etc), I plant a print_r($_POST); at the top of
the page, so there's no guessing what gets sent to the page . . . 

If you have an empty $_POST array, then the <form> isn't using
action=post, or you didn't code your button as type="submit" (?)

Just suggestions - since I can't see the code.

Steve
