Hi 

This smells like something I know...

I can only guess at what you actually have in your document but you should 
know that a form MUST HAVE a submit button.

Either you use the 

input type="submit"

which is supported by all the browsers since a decade

or

you use button type="submit" 

which is a bit less supported.

If you want to send the form from inside javascript, or any other interface, 
including the submit button will releave you of your pain.

<form action="somwhere.php" method="get">
	<input type="text" value="something" name="test">
	<button onclick="javascript:document.forms[0].submit()">
</form>

WILL NOT WORK!


but
<script type="text/javascript">
 function validate()
{#return a value of true to continue sending the form
 #return a value of false to cancel sending the form}
</script>
<form action="somwhere.php" method="get">
	<input type="text" value="something" name="test">
	<input type="submit" onclick="return(validate())" value="Submit">
</form>

Has many chances of success!


Kind regards


Andy
