[Javascript] Try to submit a form

[Peter Brunone]

	This may be a dumb question, but have you tried removing the visibility
criteria to see if the forms will multi-submit at all?
	Also, is this an internet or intranet site?  If the former, then you may
run into problems if vital functions depend on the viability of client
scripting (you've probably already thought this through, but just in case,
there it is).

|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.
