Heh, Rick,
I think we both misread what this gentleman is doing. I know I did. I missed that the button used to submit the form was outside the form. Why it is outside is not clear. But, he said it was. But, you seem to have missed that it was being used to submit the form. An odd situation. The original question, now that I reread it was:
i have a struts form and a button outside the form.
on button click , with javascript i need the submit the form
So, I guess he probably means he has <button> and not <input type='button'> and you and I have just been jabbering at each other. LOL Who knows?

Actually I'm pretty sure using an html submit button would work as well for handling onClick events that don't actually submit a form. Using the html button though seems to make sense though just so that the page author can see that's it's not actually being used to submit a form.
