I've tried the code below but IE says that this.form is null or empty and Firefox does nothing. # Pick me -- You can use javascript behind a button or image or link to submit the form from anywhere in your html page. You don't need the anchor but you do need a form name. Something like: href="javascript:document.FormName.submit();" Cheers Arno -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Most people will tell you this is a bad idea, as you are then relying on the end user to both have Javascript available _and_ have it switched on (and that they are not sitting behind a corporate firewall that strips out Javascript which some do apparently) Why not just use another submit button? If you don't like the look of a regular submit, then use an button instead, as these act like submit buttons for the most part. You can have as many submit buttons on a form that you like, and if you give them unique names, you will know which one has been clicked.
