    text
    copied!<p>I'm having a problem with Drupal forms. Can't think of a way to solve it and I was wondering if any brain out there has the solution to my problem.</p> <p>I have this form:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php function mymodule_myform(){ $form['#action'] = url('search/cards'); $form['whatwhere']['what'] = array( '#type' =&gt; 'textfield', '#title' =&gt; t('What?'), '#maxlength' =&gt; 80, '#required' =&gt; TRUE, ); $form['submit'] = array( '#type' =&gt; 'submit', '#value' =&gt; t('Search'), ); } ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>Which, as you can see, is supposed to submit all info to <code>www.example.com/search/cards</code>. This will indeed submit my form to the desired URL. However, without the <code>mymodule_menu()</code> hook defining the path, it will end in a 404.</p> <p>So I add:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php function mymodule_menu(){ $items['search/%'] = array( 'title' =&gt; t('Search Results'), 'page callback' =&gt; 'mymodule_main', 'access arguments' =&gt; array('access content'), 'file' =&gt; 'mymodule.inc', ); } ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>And, at <code>mymodule.inc</code> file I'll create my function <code>mymodule_main()</code>:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php function mymodule_main(){ print_r($_POST); die(); // ### Note the die(); ### return 'Just searched: '. $_POST['what']; } ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>If I leave it exactly like it is, of course PHP will end the script execution right after printing my form info on the screen. All good!</p> <p>However, if I remove the <code>die()</code>, it seems the function is called twice, and the second call does not have $_POST filled up anymore.. Seems <code>mymodule_menu()</code> overrides in some way whatever the form submit handler is doing... </p> <p>The question is: <strong>How can I submit my form to any other internal page without having the 404 and keep my form info?</strong></p> <p>Thanks in advance.</p>
