How to submit form data in bootstrap for PHP?

Question

I am currently using PHP form element : the submit button as

<input type="submit" name="submit" value"set"/>

and the form was being submitted like :

if(isset($_POST['submit']) && $_POST['submit'] == 'set'){..do something..}

Now in bootstrap a submit button is usually written as

<button type="submit" class="btn btn-success btn-sm">set</button>

My question is how to submit this form data since I cannot do it like the previous way. It might be a noob question but I am new to bootstrap. Any suggestions would be of great help.

add a hidden input with name submit? Check other fields in $_POST array? — u_mulder

There are ample (bootstrap) scripts out there using what you're wanting to do; you just need to spend some time looking for them. — Funk Forty Niner

what is this line expected to do $_POST['submit'] == 'set'? Why in the world you will use isset($_POST['submit']) when you have $_POST['submit'] = 'set' — Aniket Sahrawat

This has little to do with bootstrap. You can set a name and value attribute on a button as well as an input[submit].

<button type="submit" class="btn btn-success btn-sm" name="submit" value="set">
    set
</button>
