PHP Submit Input Problems

Question

Hi,
I am having a big problem with PHP, I wish to submit a form
to either 'Update' or 'Delete' a record, it works fine in Firefox
and Safari but not Internet Explorer.
Here is a basic code example.

Internet Explorer handles button images differently from
ordinary
buttons. Instead of passing the value, it passes the x and y
positions
of the mouse click. Use the following code to examine the
data that's
actually being sent when the form is submitted:
if ($_POST) {
print_r($_POST);
I can't remember the exact details of what IE sends, but you
will need
to add extra checks to your conditional statement to detect
which button
is being clicked - by value in most browsers, but by x or y
position in
Internet Explorer.
