Making an image trigger an action

[bugmenot]

Hi everyone,
I´m, trying to internationalizate my web.
I want to know how to make an image trigger an action, so that the user can choose the idiom by clicking on the image.
I was trying like this.
<img src="../images/banderas/espaniol.ico" id="es" value="es" action="idioma2.php" method="post" />
<img src="../images/banderas/euskera.ico" id="eu" value="eu" action="idioma2.php" method="post" />
<img src="../images/banderas/ingles.ico" id="en" value="en" action="idioma2.php" method="post" />
and then something like this in idioma2.php
if($_SESSION["eu"]!="")
$lang=$_SESSION["eu"];
elseif ($_SESSION["es"]!="")
$lang=$_SESSION["es"];
elseif ($_SESSION["en"]!="")
$lang=$_SESSION["en"];
It´s probably crazy, but i´m newby in php.
Thanks!

in order to make an image be an action, it has to be either a link, or a form.

a simple javascript can make it a post form, or you just create it as a link..


ie..

<a href="thispage.php?lang=en"><img src="english.jpg"></a>


or..
a form..

<form name="english" method="post" action="thispage.php">
<input type="hidden" name="lang" value="en">
<a href="javascript:document.english.submit();"><img src="english.jpg"></a>
</form>


that should get you in the right direction.

easiest javascript solution

no need forms, no need to create a javascript function, no need a href link....

Code: Select all

<img src="img.jpg" onclick="document.location.href='mapage.php?lang=fr';">
