WordPress Action Type

I need to determine if a user insert a post in the database

I have here this function

add_action("publish_post", "myFunc");

function myFunc(){
    echo "Success!";
}

I've tried it on the QuickPress widget and it works fine but in the "Add new post" I didn't get any response.

What action type do I need for the "Add new post" module?

Thanks in advance!

The action naame is save_post (http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/save_post). Any functions added on to here can be given the post id as an argument to do what you need.

The down side is that it is called each time a post is saved.

This action is used for saving custom meta box values from the post edit page

Hope this helps
