Quoting "Brian H. Nielsen" <70401.2635@compuserve.com>: (...) The problem is, that if you have two buttons, one says "Post" and one says "Preview", people would assume they're in the same form. I know I will. You can put multiple forms on the same (...) (21 years ago, 2-Jun-03, to lugnet.publish.html)
