Form with multiple submit buttons or multiple forms [duplicate]

Answer 1

You don't need a separate form for each article, you don't need a hidden input, and you don't need JavaScript. Just use a button instead of an input like the other answer suggested. Any of those buttons will submit the form if they're clicked, and $_POST['id'] will have the value of the button that was clicked.

is different than because it's not a self-closing tag. With an , the value is the button text. But with a , you can give it a value, and then put the text you want it to have between the tags.

Here's an example based on your code.

   {{ csrf_field() }}
   @foreach($articles as $a)
