My button "VIEW" is not going to the form of "booking_content.php" instead its just refreshing the page of "home.php"

Here's my code:

$radio = mysql_query("SELECT fldBldgName, MAX(fldTotalDuration) as fldTotalDuration FROM tbldata WHERE fldNetname = '".$get_radio."' AND fldMonth = '".$get_month."' AND fldWeek = '".$get_week. "' GROUP BY fldBldgName ORDER BY id, fldBldgName, fldTotalDuration DESC");

echo "<table class = 'tblMain'>";
echo "<tr align='left'>";
echo "<td><b><u>BUILDING NAME</u></b></td>";
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($radio))
{   
echo "<tr><td align='left'>";   
echo $row['fldBldgName']."'>";

echo "<input type='image'  src='image/view.png' name='viewBldg' onClick='this.form.action='booking_content.php'; this.form.submit()'>";
echo $row['fldBldgName'];
}
echo "</tr></table>";

My problem is this one:

  echo "<input type='image'  src='image/view.png' name='viewBldg' onClick='this.form.action='booking_content.php'; this.form.submit()'>";   

*The onClick is not going to the page of booking_content.php instead its just refreshing the page...

I can't upload an example result of my program...

ALSO the code for my button is inside of a fieldset...

Your attempt will generate the following HTML:

<input type='image' src='image/view.png' name='viewBldg' 
onclick='this.form.action='booking_content.php'; this.form.submit()'>

So your browser wont be able to interpret the onclick attribute correctly, because the ' before booking_content. Try the following:

echo "<input type='image' src='image/view.png' name='viewBldg' 
onclick=\"this.form.action='booking_content.php'; this.form.submit()\">";

Which should generate a valid HTML such as:

<input type='image' src='image/view.png' name='viewBldg' 
onclick="this.form.action='booking_content.php'; this.form.submit()">

You tried to access your form in wrong way. this in your code refer to the input itself not to the form.

You may have to do something like the following:

<input type="button" value="view" onclick="document.fn.action='http://google.';document.fn.submit();" />

where fn the attribute name value of your form.

Notice: in this case you should have only one form with that name.
