Um... At the risk of sounding pedantic, isn't the whole point of this 
thread that one should use return statements in the handler function 
rather than in the event handler itself?

So I would argue that 'onsubmit="return checkMyForm()"' should read 
'onsubmit="checkMyForm()"' since the handler function itself returns a 
true or false value to the onsubmit event, thereby cancelling or granting 
the submit event.

Just my 0.02 Eur.
