I have a form on my page and you can enter info and then hit submit and it goes into my database. But the question is how can I make the button do 2 things I want it also to go back to the homepage after the button is pressed. So it submits the data and returns to hompepage here is the site. if anyone has an ideas the would be great.

There are 3 ways that I can think of now.

1. Set the action="" in the form to the frontpage, add the database-intert in the top of the code on your index.

2. On the page that does the database-insert. Use a PHP redirect (you can not print out any HTML info before you run this script):

Code: Select all: $to = "index.php"; header("Location: $to"); exit;

3. On the page that does the database-insert. Use a meta-redirect. Just put this in the <head></head> (the number is the amound of seconds before redirecting):

Code: Select all: <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2;url=index.php">

Good luck!
