Re: submit

What doesn't work? what browser?

Works for me in IE 5.5 it may be that you need to return false after the
reset to stop for form from submitting.

Becuase one changes the form, then goes to a URI. The other goes to a URI,
and then goes to a different URI before anything can happen.

.... but read:

and

Really? Then you probably have an input named submit.

Thanks to all.
I find error.
My other submit button name was "submit". :)))

Without more information I'm guessing, but my guess is that you
have a form element named "submit" on your form, such as:

<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Go" />

If you have something similar to the above line, change the name
of this input element to something other then "submit".

Also, never just refer to the name of the form, your code will
work in Internet Explorer, but will fail in almost every other
browser, because "Forma1" will be undefined.

<a href="#" onclick="docume nt.forms['Forma1'].submit();retur n
false;">Link 1</a>

The "return false" is also necessary. It may seem to be
unnecessary because the submit() means it never executes,
however, in at least one web browser (Internet Explorer 5) the
onclick event fires, begins to submit the form, then immediately
follows the HREF attribute, cancelling the form submission. The
net effect is that in IE5, calling submit() as shown above
without returning false appears to do nothing.

Lastly, the link above will only work if JavaScript is enabled, a
solution similar to the one below will make the form work
regardless of client-side JavaScript support:

<style type="text/css">
input.submitBtn {
background-color: transparent;
border: none;
text-decoration: underline;
color: blue;
cursor: pointer;
cursor: hand;
}
</style>
<form>
<input type="submit" id="submitId" name="submitNam e"
value="Click here" class="submitBt n" />
</form>
