[Javascript] Try to submit a form

[Andrew Dunn]

Peter,

The forms are each aimed at a different page, here is a tag from one:

<form method=post action="script_pages/new_ef_script.asp" name=efs id=efs>

Here also is a <a> tag that when clicked will call the form to submit, I
have images simulating tabs (like on a windows application) 

<a
onclick="check_for_save();
change_div('the_notes','deposit','resident','personal','enquiry','ef');
window.status='EF Member Information'" 
href="javascript:void(0)">
<img border="0" src="images/buttons/ef_tab.jpg">
</a>

I really don't know why it won't submit, it's a bit strange.

Andrew.

Andrew,

	I could be wrong, but once you submit a form which targets the
current page, don't you lose control of that page?  You might have to aim
the form somewhere else (either another frame or another window).

|Hi there,
|
|I have 5 forms on one page when I try to submit the first form 
|(form[0]), it's ok and the form submits, but when I try to submit 
|another form (eg
|form[2]) it doesn't appear that the form does anything and
|certainly doesn't
|put anything in to the database.
|
|Some code is below (see line with ***) the condition on submitting a 
|form is the visibility of a div, as I have a few div's which appear as 
|tabs.
|
|if (eval("visible_1.style.visibility == 'visible'")) {
|			//submit personal info (including notes)
|			document.forms[0].submit();
|		}
|		else if (eval("visible_2.style.visibility == 'visible'")) {
|			//submit personal info (including notes)
|			document.forms[0].submit();
|		}
|		else if (eval("visible_3.style.visibility == 'visible'")) {
|			alert("enquiry");
|		}
|		else if (eval("visible_4.style.visibility == 'visible'")) {
|			//***
|			document.forms[2].submit();
|		}
|		else if (eval("visible_5.style.visibility == 'visible'")) {
|			alert("deposit");
|		}
|		else if (eval("visible_6.style.visibility == 'visible'")) {
|			alert("resident");
|		}
|
|Would anyone know why this form would not submit?
|
|Thanks.
|Andrew.
