i am using the following code to submit a form:

<script>
	function marktaskcomplete(){
	document.forms["markcomplete"].submit();
}
</script>
<?
		if ($_POST['markcompletevalue']=='yes'){
			include "dbconnect.php";
		$taskid=$_POST['taskid'];
		$query="UPDATE tasks SET status='0' WHERE uid='$id' AND id='$taskid'";
        $result=mysql_query($query);
		if ($result){
			echo "<script>location.href='?goto=taskmanager'</script>";
		}else{
			echo"fail";
		}
		mysql_close;
	}
	?>

Do not overwrite the form names and make it as separate form.
