how this code works? I know that when the user submits php ECHOS the variable "$editFormAction" but then i get a little lost.
I know the basic idea of posting information...
if(!$_POST['submit']){
//print the form and the form action is php SELF
}
else{
//connect to d-base
//execute query
//close
}
thanks in advance
