Thanks Eric

I did try that..and it didnt seem to work either...but I think my
problem is elsewhere.  I often use html forms to pass data to a server-
ide tet fil...via a php GET. So the one TW has many such forms. The
form I was asking about above, is actually accessed from a popup...and
I noticed that while "return false" didnt show up the alert
panels....the php server-side response...showed up, not in the form in
the popup, but rather in another form which was, by chance open in a
sidebar panel.

Sometimes the coding of "<script>var
form=place.lastChild.getElementsByTagName('form')
[0];form.aluno.value=localStorage.username; ..." to place data into
the form also doe not work.....SO I am thinking I have confusion
between the various form (in the TW) ....

I have tried <html><form name="..."   and also <html><form
id=............ but neither seem to resolve the issue....

How can I uniquely name or label each form, to avoid this
confusion ???

Thanks in Advance
Skye
