how to find out if something is clicked.

[dawizman]

Hi, I'm trying to learn php, but I'm stuck, I've looked through all the tut's I've read and evn searched for every possible keyword that has to do with this but I can't find anything, so here it goes.

Using php, not perl or asp, how would I find out if something is clicked on? So I can go:



if (user clicks on something)
something happens



please, I really hope this is possible.

thanks in advance.

if($clicked) {
# do the stuff you want here
};

I know that, but how do I find out if the user has clicked on a button/ link.

Or, what code would I use to make a link etc.. that adjusts a variable.

Then you should give me your query first so that I can give u the perl script...

ok, lets say I have a variable named $main . well when someone clicks on the button that says main 2, the variable is changed to $main2. If you can make a small script like this in perl or php that I can add more to, then great!

variable can't change. the value can.
Can you explain what you are trying to do with the script?
That will make things easier.. :)

ok, I am trying to change the value of a variable, like when something is clicked it equals a new number. Then, in the centerr of the page I will have some code that goes: if $var=1 {include(main.txt)} elseif $var=2 {include(contact.txt)} etc...
