Burhan, I think you need to do something like this:
<form action="<?= $currentPage; ?>" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="verb" id="verb" value="prev">
<input type="hidden" name="item_id" value="<?= $prevVal; ?>">
<input type="button" value="< <"
onclick="processSubmit('prev', '<?= $prevVal; ?>')">
<input type="button" value="> >"
onclick="processSubmit('next', '<?= $nextVal; ?>')">
</form>
Then have the function:
function processSubmit(sVerb, sId) {
document.getElementById("verb").value = sVerb;
document.getElementById("item_id").value = sId;
document.forms[0].submit()
}
Note that I've changed the name of your 'id' field slightly, as you
ideally shouldn't use another html element/attribute name.
