    need some newbie help...

    Hi fellow web developers!

    I have a little problem due to my lack of javascript / web developing
    skills...

    Basically I have a form embedded in a table. WHat I would like to do,
    is have the form be submitted when I click on a href link. Currently
    it appears that the page reloads - but nothing actually is submitted.

    here is a demo code,,, is it something in the head?

    <html>
    <head>
    <SCRIPT language="JavaS cript">
    function submitCode()
    {
    document.ApplyC ode.submit();
    }
    </SCRIPT>
    </head>
    <body>

    <table>
    <tr>
    <td>
    <form action="thisPag e.jsp" name="SubmitCod e"
    method="post">
    Code:
    <input type="text" name="Code" />
    <!-- this is the line that doesnt work right -->
    <a href="thisPage. jsp"
    onClick="javasc ript: submitCode()">
    Click Me
    </a>
    </form>
    </td>
    </tr>
    </table>

    </body>
    </html>

      oops - Just so you know, there is still an issue, but the demo above
      mis-named the form in the javascript... still need some guidance..

          You must stop the HTML link
          (with return false;)

          E.G. :

          <a href="page.htm"
          onclick="alert( this.href); return false;">href</a>


          page's code :
          -------------

          <html>
          <head>
          <script type="text/javascript">
          function submitCode()
          {
          document.Submit Code.submit();
          return false;
          }
          </script>
          </head>
          <body>
          <table>
          <tr>
          <td>
          <form action="thisPag e.jsp" name="SubmitCod e"
          method="post">
          Code:
          <input type="text" name="Code" />
          <!-- this is the line that doesnt work right -->
          <a href="thisPage. jsp"
          onclick="return submitCode()">
          Click Me
          </a>
          </form>
          </td>
          </tr>
          </table>
          </body>

              You should learn HTML before you make an attempt at Web programming.

              computer, another word processor, or another network. -- Tim Berners-Lee
