I wonder whether someone may be able to help me please.
I've put together this form which, if you scroll to the bottom of the page, has multiple submission buttons. i.e 'Submit', 'Deleted selected image' and 'View Selected Image'.
I posted a query on this site yesterday here, about about how to go about dealing with multiple 'submission' buttons and received some great advice.
I've tried to implement the advice I was given, but I just can't seem to get this to work. As the guidance suggested, I've added a name to each button and tried to call that through the PHP script, but all that happens is the page refreshes as if submitting the whole page, rather, than for example, being able to view the selected file.
I just wondered whether someone could perhaps take a look at this please and let me know where I'm going wrong.
Please find my PHP code & Form script below

$db_user = 'username';
