Pardon me first for being a beginner in php and in joomla development (hello @mickmackusa!). I am creating a module which uses a form to first load users then on submit would display order items ordered by a client selected from the form. I have both parts of the question almost solved, that is, the list of users being displayed and data retrieved from the database if I select one user but I can do this separately. My question is: in my helper file, I have 2 functions for retrieving users (getUsers) and for retrieving client data (getDetails). The only issue I have is: how to set the form's action to call my getDetails function in my module's template file? I have tried
<form id="myform" method="post" action="getDetails()">
which does not work.
I have also tried
<form id="myform" method="post" action="<?php echo getDetails();?>">
which does not work either as I get a 404 error.
I guess I'm missing a basic thing here but could not find any answer.
Thanks to help me to get this to work.
