[Javascript] automatic form submission

Question:  Is it your goal to have the form submit automatically as soon as 
the page loads, without allowing time for the human to interact with the form?

You can alternatively use the syntax:

         window.onload = functionName;

outside of any javascript function.

If this doesn't work:
         window.onload = document.Myform.submit;
         [sorry I'm too rushed to double-check]

then you should be able to do this:

         window.onload = jsSubmitForm;

         function jsSubmitForm()
         {
                 document.Myform.submit;
         }
