    copied!<p>Hi all Im a new learner for web development.</p> <p>I have a page with a form after user click the submit button, then button will submit the form content to the next page to execute and save into database.</p> <p>So that, my page will go to another page to execute and return to the landing page.</p> <p>Eg: index.php and exec.php</p> <p>index.php:</p> <pre><code>&lt;form name="g-form" action="gbtn-exec.php" method="post" class="goat-vote" onsubmit="return validategForm()"&gt; &lt;input type="text" name="g-product" placeholder="Brand / Product Name" style="-moz-border-radius: 5px; border-radius: 5px; padding-left:20px; opacity:.5; border:none; margin-left:110px; width:440px; height:38px; font-family:'Proxima Nova Rg';color:#000; font:1.6em;" /&gt; &lt;p class="g-question"&gt;Why you love it?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;textarea name="g-reason" style="-moz-border-radius: 5px; border-radius: 5px; padding:5px; opacity:.5; border:none; margin-left:110px; width:450px; height:150px; font-family:'Proxima Nova Rg';color:#333; font-size:1em;"&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt; &lt;input name="g-btn" class="vote-btn" type="submit" value="vote" style="margin-left:470px; cursor:pointer;"&gt;&lt;/form&gt; </code></pre> <p>exec.php</p> <pre><code>if ($_POST["g-product"] &amp;&amp; $_POST["g-reason"] != "" ) { $gproduct = $_POST["g-product"]; $greason = $_POST["g-reason"]; $insert ="INSERT INTO jovine.vote (vote_id ,product_name ,reason ,type) VALUES (NULL, '$gproduct', '$greason', 'goat')"; $result = mysql_query($insert,$con); echo "&lt;script&gt;"; echo "alert('Thank you. Your vote has been recorded.');"; echo "window.location.href='index.php';"; echo "&lt;/script&gt;"; } </code></pre> <p>My question is, how can I execute the submit button in the index.php without going to the exec.php? (means to combine both in a .php) It is because when user click submit button it goes to a blank page to execute which do not look nice.</p> <p>anyone can help? Thanks! =)</p>
