PHP - Why Will This Not Submit

Say I have an "Entries" table. I want to submit same multiple entries using a form submission. And If I have other queries submitted in the same form, I want those quarries to be submitted only once.  Is that possible to do? 

Here's my code.

if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {

  $entries = 10;

  $id   = 55;
  $name = 'Smith';

  $insert = $db->prepare("INSERT INTO entries(id, name) VALUES(:id, :name)");
  $insert->bindParam(':id', $id);
  $insert->bindParam(':name', $name);
  $result_insert = $insert->execute();
  if($result_insert == false) {
    echo 'Fail';
  } else {
    echo 'Success';
  }

}
?>
<form action="" method="post">
  <input type="submit" name="submit" value="SUBMIT" />
</form>

Hi.  Pretty straight forward I guess but as the name suggests am a newbie.  I have a form that requires the user to enter certain parameters.  If the values are blank it submits to itself and loads the error messages.  What I want to do is create PHP code that submits the form to a different url.  What I thought was create two forms (the second with hidden fields replicating the first form), each form having a different url in the action"" code.  What I cant work out is the PHP IF ELSE code to submit form 2 if Form1 is is validated correctly.  This is the PHP code relevant to the form validation.  Help?

<?php
      //If form was submitted
      if ($_POST['submitted']==1) {
          $errormsg = ""; //Initialize errors
          if ($_POST[width]){
             $title = $_POST[width]; //If title was entered
          }
          else{
             $errormsg = "Please enter width";
          }
          if ($_POST[drop]){
             $textentry = $_POST[drop]; //If comment was entered
          }
          else{
             if ($errormsg){ //If there is already an error, add next error
                $errormsg = $errormsg . " & content";
             }else{
                $errormsg = "Please enter drop";
             }
          }
      }

      if ($errormsg){ //If any errors display them
          echo "<div class=\"box red\">$errormsg</div>";
      }

      //If all fields present
      if ($title && $textentry){
         //Do something
          
echo 'THIS IS WHERE I WANT THE CODE TO SUBMIT FORM 2 or SUBMIT FORM 1 TO A DIFFERENT URL';
      }   
      ?>

</html>

I am trying to make my website submit a file when the submit button is pressed. I tried to use isset but when I press submit it doesn't work.

This is just an example of when I am trying to do:

<?php

if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
echo "clicked";
}
else
{
echo "not_clicked";
}

?>

 <form  id="myform" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="test.php" method="POST">
 <input type="submit" value="Upload" />
 
 </form>

how do I code the submit into this form?
  echo "<form action='#' method='post'><b>Prerent Update :<br /><br />
         <table border='1'>
          <tr>
          <th>dep</th>
          <th>tenant</th>
                    </tr>";
  while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
  {
   echo "<tr>
          <td><input type='text' name='dep' value='" . $row['dep'] . "'></td>
          <td><input type='text' name='name' value='" . $row['name'] . "'></td>
            
          </tr>";
   }
  echo "</table>
// ***
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="update record"/>
// ***
echo</form>";
  }
 else{echo "No listing for appartment $apt.<br />Please select another.<br />";}
 }
if(!empty($_POST["update"]))
{
 $sql = "UPDATE testtable SET dep, name, amtpaid, prevbal, misc, tentpay, hudpay, datepaid  WHERE apt='apt'";
 mysql_query($sql) or die("Update query failed.");
 echo "Record for appartment ".$_POST["apt"]." has been updated ...";
 }
?>
