Ok, so I wrote some code to make links act like the submit button to a form. I wrote a test file (test.php) which used analyze.php to work with the form data. When I put it up to the scale on the main page the javascript stopped work, so I'm thinking it's because I'm putting it into a table, below is the code. Any ideas or thoughts is much appreciated! Thanks guys!
test.php
[php]
<html>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function submit ( selectedType )
{
document.form1.value.value = selectedType ;
document.form1.submit() ;
}
-->
</script>
<form name="form1" method="post" action="analyze.php">
<input type="hidden" name="value" />
<a href="javascript
:submit('Delete')">Delete</a> or
<a href="javascript
:submit('Edit')">Edit</a>or
<a href="javascript
:submit('Share')">Share</a>
</form>
</html>
[/php]
analyze.php
[php]
<html>
<body>
<?php
$file = $_POST['value'];
echo $file;
if ($file == 'Delete')
{
echo "Delete has been chosen.";
}
elseif ($file =='Edit')
{
echo "Edit function has been chosen.";
}
elseif ($file =='Share')
{
echo "Share function has been chosen.";
}
else
{
echo "Nothing has been chosen.";
}
?>
</body>
</html>
[/php]
And when I use test.php everything works, now below is the code that uses it in a table and doesn't work. I
main.php (The entire file is not included. If you think the problem could be in the rest of the file, let me know, but I think it's a waste of space and tiem for you guys to look at)
[php]
html>
<body>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function submit ( selectedType )
{
document.form1.value.value = selectedType ;
document.form1.submit() ;
}
-->
</script>

{

echo "<table><tr>

$dir = opendir($theDirectory);
while(false !== ($file = readdir($dir)))
{
$type = filetype($theDirectory ."/". $file);
if($listDirectories || $type != "dir")
