Submitting a form using javascript

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
May 07.2007

Hi,
I have a form which displays questions with 5 options as radio buttons. I have a timer attached with the page. After the timer times out I need to submit the form automatically. The form should not be submitted before the timer reaches zero.
Please provide me the solution for this problem.

Is there any way to hide a submit button rather than disabling it?

var sub_butt = document.getElementById('button_id');

sub_butt.style.display = "none";

Success!
