Form Action with Relative Path Not Working

Question

I am using PHP and MySql and running inside of VS.PHP. I have written the following:

<form action="../register.php" method="post">
<input type="button" value="Submit" id="submit" />
</form>

But when I click, nothing actually happens. Am I not allowed to use relative paths for actions?

Answer 1

You need to change

<input type="button" value="Submit" id="submit" />

to

<input type="submit" value="Submit" id="submit" />

The button input type is mostly used with javascript, but will not submit your form automatically.

EDIT:

Here is a reference on the input button tag
