$_POST trouble

[Knoen]

I´ve been trying to get a new form to work, but without luck.

 

in the admin section i´ve created a new button, "More.." so when the user clicks a product he gets "edit, delete, move, copy to" and "More...". The idea is that the "more" form should be handeling other atributes of the product. The trouble is that when i have been typing in all values and the user clicks "update" the fields is not accessible trough the POST variables. This is how the text fields are declared:

 

<form name="kno_insert" action="http://blablabla.com/osc/catalog/admin/categories.php?cPath=27&pID=62&action=kno_insert" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<table width="600" border="1" align="left" cellpadding="4">
<tr>
	<td colspan="2" class="pageHeading">
		Edit downloadable documents and other data
	</td>
</tr>
<tr>
	<td>
		Path to downloadable document
	</td>
	<td>
		<img src="images/pixel_trans.gif" border="0" alt="" width="24" height="15"> <input type="file" name="downloadlink">
	</td>
</tr>
<tr>
	<td>
		Protectve class
	</td>
	<td>
		<img src="images/pixel_trans.gif" border="0" alt="" width="24" height="15"> <input type="text" name="protectiveClass">
	</td>
</tr>
<tr>
	<td>
		Toecap/type
	</td>
	<td>
		<img src="images/pixel_trans.gif" border="0" alt="" width="24" height="15"> <input type="text" name="">
	</td>
</tr>
<tr>
	<td>
		Midsole/type
	</td>
	<td>
		<img src="images/pixel_trans.gif" border="0" alt="" width="24" height="15"> <input type="text" name="midsole">
	</td>
</tr>
<tr>
	<td>
		Outer sole
	</td>
	<td>
		<img src="images/pixel_trans.gif" border="0" alt="" width="24" height="15"> <input type="text" name="outersole">
	</td>
</tr>
<tr>
	<td>
		Other information
	</td>
	<td>
		<img src="images/pixel_trans.gif" border="0" alt="" width="24" height="15"> <input type="text" name="other">
	</td>
</tr>
<tr>
	<td colspan="2" align="center">
		<a href="http://blablabla/osc/catalog/admin/categories.php?cPath=27&pID=62&action=kno_insert"><img src="includes/languages/english/images/buttons/button_update.gif" border="0" alt="Copy" title=" Copy "></a>
	</td>
</tr>
</table>

 

When i read the variables i do like this:

 

	case 'kno_insert':

$toecap = tep_db_prepare_input($HTTP_GET_VARS['toecap']);
.
.
.
.
.

 

 

Since it does´t work i must be forgetting something. But what?

 

Can anyone give me an hint?

 

Thanks

1. tep_href_link MUST BE USED FOR ALL LINKS

 

2. </form>

This is how i define the link for the update button:

 

$ref = '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_CATEGORIES) . '?cPath='. $cPath .'&pID=' . $HTTP_GET_VARS['pID'] . '&action=kno_insert">';

$btn = tep_image_button('button_update.gif', IMAGE_UPDATE) . '</a>';

$ref . $btn

 

is that correct?

 

The </form> fell out when copying the code. Sorry. It is under the </Table>.

Apart from the obvious ommissions of using the all important tep_image tep_href_link functions there is a more glaring error. ..

 

You cannot set a form as method="post"

 

Then collect it as

 

$HTTP_GET_VARS['toecap']
