I was recently confronted with the problem of having a single html form with three different submit buttons, each button submitting the form data to a different php script. This is obviously impossible with html alone, as a form can only have one 'action' attribute, which dictates the URL of the file that the form's data is submitted to.

I searched around on the web for an easy way to implement this and found various examples. One of the best examples I found was on CoderLab's blog: Multiple submit buttons on a multiple blog which uses javascript to apply a different action attribute to the form depending on which button is pressed. Each button in the form has it's own onClick function like so:

<form name="myForm" id="myForm">
Search: <input type="text" id="wrdSearch"/>
<input type="button" name="google" id="google" value="Google" onClick="SendTo(this.id)"/>
<input type="button" name="msn" id="msn" value="MSN" onClick="SendTo(this.id)"/>
<input type="button" name="yahoo" id="yahoo" value="Yahoo" onClick="SendTo(this.id)"/>
</form>

(Visit the page to see the javascript that goes with it: http://blog.coderlab.us/2005/10/04/multiple-submit-buttons-in-a-form/)

As I already had jQuery installed on the site, and the CoderLab script would still need some modification to serve my specific purpose, I decided to see if I could find a simpler way to achieve a similar result using jQuery. The form on my site was a lot more complex, with many fields etc. So what I really needed was a script that would submit all the form data to each of the 3 php scripts depending on which submit button was clicked.

Firstly, I stripped the onClick functions out of the form and removed the name attributes from the buttons too, like so:

<form id="myForm" method="post">
Search: <input type="text" name="search"/>
<input type="button" id="button1" value="Submit to script 1" />
<input type="button" id="button2" value="Submit to script 2" />
<input type="button" id="button3" value="Submit to script 3" />
</form>

I then wrote the following jQuery script to change the form's action attribute accordingly and submit it when each button is pressed:

$(document).ready(function(){

$("#button1").click(function(){
$('form#myForm').attr({action: "script_1.php"});
$('form#myForm').submit();
});

$("#button2").click(function(){
$('form#myForm').attr({action: "script_2.php"});
$('form#myForm').submit();
});

$("#button3").click(function(){
$('form#myForm').attr({action: "script_3.php"});
$('form#myForm').submit();
});

});

The script should work on any browser that is compatible with jQuery (see here: http://docs.jquery.com/Browser_Compatibility)

The Comus Productions website has recently undergone a major upgrade. It now has loads of new Flash presentations which incorporate a new set of Comus stings and idents.

The site is now fully content managed with the Admin76 content management system by 76 Creative, so all the text, images and video content on the site can be easily updated by the site's owner.

I used the javascript jQuery library a lot throughout the site, to fade text in and out, fade images and to switch slideshows and videos too.

A prominent feature of the site is the recreation of the Photoshop Lens Flare as an animated flash movie, which I adapted from this lensflare project on FlashDen. It was this lensflare that inspired the most experimental flash movie of the site - the Comus Viewfinder which can be seen on the links page.

Other Flash features include a more corporate style flash presentation on the services page and an explosive ident on the home page!

It is important to protect email addresses on websites from being harvested by spambots.

"Email spambots collect e-mail addresses from the Internet in order to build mailing lists for sending unsolicited e-mail, also known as spam. Such spambots are web crawlers that can gather e-mail addresses from Web sites, newsgroups, special-interest group (SIG) postings, and chat-room conversations. Because e-mail addresses have a distinctive format, spambots are easy to write. A number of legislators in the U.S. are reported to be devising laws that would outlaw the spambot." – Wikipedia

This is my method for automatically detecting email addresses and replacing them with a javascript that will disguise them from spambots. The script works in two stages one in javascript and the other in php.

First the javascript function that outputs the mailto link:

function sb_email(user,site){
document.write('<a href=\"mailto:' + user + '@' + site + '\">');
document.write(user + '@' + site + '<\/a>');
}

The function has 2 parameters "user" and "site", which are the two parts of the email address either side of the "@". This function can be called like so:

sb_email('joe','bloggs.com');

The second part is the php functions that recognise email addresses and replace them with the javascript function to disguise them:

//function to output the js
function create_js ($matches){
$parts = explode ('@', substr ($matches[0], 1));
if(substr($parts[1],-1)=='.'){$parts[1]=substr($parts[1],0,-1); $parts[2]='.';}
$str = $matches[1].'<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">';
$str .= 'sb_email("'.$parts[0].'", "'.$parts[1].'");';
$str .= '</script>'.$parts[2];
return $str;
}
$js_callback = "create_js ";
 
//function to recognise emails
function email_protect($text){
global $js_callback;
$replace = '/([> ])[A-Z0-9._-]+@[A-Z0-9][A-Z0-9.-]{0,61}[A-Z0-9]\.[A-Z.]{2,6}/i';
$output = preg_replace_callback($replace, $js_callback, $text);
return $output;
}

The email_protect php function can be called on any text string like so:

echo email_protect($text);

It will automatically replace any email addresses in the text with the javascript, therefore hiding them from spambots.
