I am try to check if the button tag is clicked then do the statement but it seems doesn't work. Am I missing anything or doing something wrong? Thanks so much.
if (isset($_POST['appetizer_button'])) {
$results = $mysqli->query("SELECT * FROM products ORDER BY id ASC");
if ($results) {
//fetch results set as object and output HTML
while($obj = $results->fetch_object()) {
echo '<div class="product">';
echo '<form method="post" action="cart_update.php">';
// echo '<div class="product-thumb"><img src="images/'.$obj->product_img_name.'"></div>';
echo '<div class="product-content"><h3>'.$obj->product_name.'</h3>';
echo '<div class="product-desc">'.$obj->product_desc.'</div>';
echo '<div class="product-info">';
echo 'Price '.$currency.$obj->price.' | ';
echo 'Qty <input type="text" name="product_qty" value="1" size="3" />';
echo '<button class="add_to_cart">Add To Cart</button>';
echo '</div></div>';
echo '<input type="hidden" name="product_code" value="'.$obj->product_code.'" />';
echo '<input type="hidden" name="type" value="add" />';
echo '<input type="hidden" name="return_url" value="'.$current_url.'" />';
echo '</form>';
echo '</div>';
}
// }
}
}
<td>
<button name="appetizer_button" onclick="location.href='index.php'">Appetizers & Soup</a></button> |
<button name="house_button" onclick="location.href='index.php'">House Specials</a></button>

This should work fine
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] === 'POST') {
// Something posted
if (isset($_POST['appetizerbutton'])) {
// btnDelete
} else {
// Assume btnSubmit
}
}

It has to be like this:
<form action="index.php" method="post">
<input type="submit" name="appetizer_button" value="Appetizers & Soup">
</form>
This will generate the post event that will in-turn execute your code.
To echo:
if (isset($_POST['appetizer_button'])) {
// Your code that you want to execute
}

Where is your form
? It should be something like:
<form action="something.php" method="post">
<button name="appetizer_button" onclick="location.href='index.php'">Appetizers & Soup</a></button> |
<button name="house_button" onclick="location.href='index.php'">House Specials</a></button>
</form>'

As per you comment, you just need to add <form>
form your buttons as:
<td>
<form method="post" action="index.php">
<button type="submit" name="appetizer_button">Appetizers & Soup</a></button> |
<button type="submit" name="house_button">House Specials</a></button>
</form>
</td>
