submit a form

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Jun 26.2007

Hello

I have a form with:

[QUOTE]

– not submit button but with an image instead of it with an <a href= “javascript:validateform()”>
– no action
– an OnSubmit=validateform()

[/QUOTE]

This is working but if I press Enter key this made a relod of page and jump the validating…

Maybe I must use a window.onLoad just like this

[QUOTE]

window.onload=function() {
document.getElementsByTagName(‘registration’)0].onsubmit=validateForm;
}

[/QUOTE]

But it is not working… maybe i have to put the form action or maybe i have to check the Dreamwevaer code (in the page there is some code by dreamweaver to insert into the DB after submit…)

I’ll check it later, if you have some suggestions I’ll apreciate it.

thanks

@uncokeauthorJun 26.2007 — ops, sorry, it was. Just a re-typing error.

window.onload=function() {

document.getElementsByTagName('registration')[0].onsubmit=alert("ok");}[/QUOTE]

But is don't works...

The form is like this

<form action="<?php echo $editFormAction; ?>" method="POST" name="registration" id="registration" >...</form>[/QUOTE]

I have tryed also

<form method="POST" name="registration" id="registration" >...</form>[/QUOTE]


Hmm... but is my window.onload function right ?

window.onload=function() {

&lt;html&gt;
[color=red]&lt;head&gt;[/color]
&lt;script type="text/javascript" src="my.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
[color=red]&lt;/head&gt;[/color]
&lt;body&gt;
&lt;form method="POST" name="registration" id="registration" action="a.php"&gt;

&lt;input type="submit" value="submit me"&gt;

&lt;/form&gt;

@rootJun 27.2007 — You are trying to add a onsubmit event to a form that has no submit button, so how are you..

Client-side: How are you submitting the form without the submit button?

server-sided: How can you tell its a form without testing to see if the Submit button is present?

Success!
