[thelist] Validation question

Hello, 

I am doing the final touches a new web site and have run the pages through
the W3C validator. The good news is that the code for which I'm responsible
validates. The bad news is that in order to interact with one of our oldest
dbs, I need to use some archaic code that doesn't validate. 

Specifically this line: <form name ="fbilinfo"
action="/cgi-bin/port-postquery" method="post"
onSubmit="return(loadVariables(this))" target="_blank"> 

The validator's response: Line 135, column 79: there is no attribute
"onSubmit" (explain...).

What would be a good way to handle this line in order to have the site
validate? 

TIA!
Julie
