thanks for the help.
at the end, i did the followin:
- no javascript-visibility tricks
- the form's submit buttons are written out using document.write
- i added a <noscript> tag to warn the user to enable javascript
this way, if javascript is disabled, the user cannot submit the form. he
can still see it, but cannot submit (so cannot break anything).
