[ cf-dev ] showModalDialog form submit crash

[Dave Phipps]

Hi,

I have a page that opens a login form in a modalDialog window.  The 
javascript call is like so:

<script language="javascript">
  function openLogin() {
  	   parent.showModalDialog("login2.cfm",window,"dialogWidth:309px; 
dialogHeight:273px;help:0;status:no;");
  }
 </script>

The login2.cfm looks like this:

<form name="loginform" action="results.cfm" method="post" target="window" 
onsubmit="self.close();">
	<table>
	<tr><td colspan="2" background="images/1px_spacer.gif" width="270" 
height="8">&nbsp;</td></tr>
	<tr>
	<td class="logintext">Username:</td>
	<td><input type="text" maxlength="20" name="uname" class="loginfield"></td>
	</tr>
	<tr><td colspan="2" background="images/1px_spacer.gif" width="270" 
height="8">&nbsp;</td></tr>
	<tr>
	<td class="logintext">Password:</td>
	<td><input type="password" maxlength="16" name="pword" 
class="loginfield"></td>
	</tr>
	<tr><td colspan="2"width="270" height="15" align="right"><input 
type="button" name="cancel" value="Exit" class="loginbtn" 
onclick="self.close();">&nbsp;<input type="submit" name="login" 
value="login" class="loginbtn"><img src="images/1px_spacer.gif" width="33" 
height="15" alt="" border="0"></td></tr>
	</table>
</form>

When I try to submit the form it crashes the browser.  Is there some reason 
why I can't do a standard form submission from a showModalDialog window?

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers

Dave
