The problem is that the <form> is being *submitted* and has action="..." defined, so it defaults to loading the current page again, with the form fields packed into the URL. Two ways to fix this (both really easy!): 1) Change type="submit" to type="button" (the 'onclick' handler does all the work, so you don't need form to do any additional 'submit' handling. and/or 2) add "return false;" to the end of the onclick handler. If the onclick handler returns false, the submit handler is bypassed by the browser. that should do it.... enjoy, -e -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
