hi guys, i just want to ask how could i input an action to a link?? the best choice was to create a button which will do the act, however, im having difficulties with it. now my resort was to add the code to the link..meaning instead of the submit button to perform the action, the link will do it..how could i do that? thanks...^_^

then use form... upon submitting the form. all it's data will be send to the server which then PHP parses.
