Are there alternative methods to achieve the desired functionality without using a second hidden button in PHP forms?

Issue: Using a second hidden button in PHP forms can sometimes lead to confusion and unnecessary complexity. An alternative method to achieve the desired functionality is by utilizing JavaScript to dynamically submit the form when a certain condition is met. 

// PHP code snippet demonstrating how to dynamically submit a form using JavaScript instead of a second hidden button

<form id="myForm" action="submit.php" method="post">
    <input type="text" name="data" id="data">
    <input type="submit" value="Submit" onclick="submitForm()">
</form>

<script>
    function submitForm() {
        // Perform any necessary validation or condition check here
        if (conditionMet) {
            document.getElementById("myForm").submit();
        }
    }
</script>
