works in firefox not in i explorer, href form submit

[dessie1981]

Hi everyone,

Have a problem with my href form submit, it works in Firefox but not in microsoft ie5.

Below are segments of my code.

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function formSubmit()
{
document.myform.submit();
}
//-->
</script>

<p>
<form name="myform" method="post" action="confirmation.php?id=<?echo $p;?>">
<b>Purchase Order Number :
<input type="text" name="purchaseid"></form>
</p>

<a href = "quotation.php">Add as Quotation</a> / <a href="#" onClick="formSubmit();">Confirm order</a></p>

Any help would be great.

Maybe
`

document.forms["myform"]

would do the job.

Cheers,
Dian

It works as is in IE6.
Perhaps your browser has cached an older version of the page? Click on View\Source to ensure you are seeing the current code.



Google, you're my hero!

Also make sure your page source validates correctly.

you need to return false.

<a href="#" onClick="formSubmit(); [red]return false;[/red]">

Thanks Guys for you feedback,

I added in "return false" and it did the trick.

Thanks again
