Sep 3 '15 at 10:35 2 No. that should be ok @AdamM. –Neal Sep 3 '15 at 17:25 Ok. I came here because of this problem, then I removed my onsubmit and it worked. Now I can't reproduce it anymore hmmm so ye it should be ok as you said. –Adam M. Sep 4 '15 at 7:19 @AdamM. your onsubmit was probably doing something that stopped the default action or something (or prevented event bubbling etc) –Neal Sep 4 '15 at 15:48 I wish there were a better way because lots of people name and id their submit button with "submit". –joshreesjones May 8 at 20:15 add a comment| up vote 10 down vote This is probably because the form contains input with name=submit; then the submit property contains object of the element.

Join them; it only takes a minute: Sign up What is wrong with document.forms[0].submit()? up vote 0 down vote favorite I am helping someone with a web page that they are having a problem with, I sorted out the validation part but behavior of the submit process is not as you http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25372525/what-is-wrong-with-document-forms0-submit would expect. To catch and stop the default event, I used the following in the head of the function var evt = event ? event:window.event; if (evt.preventDefault) evt.preventDefault(); evt.returnValue = false; evt.cancelBubble = true; If I change any part of it, the prevention of the default action doesn't work and the page in MSIE will submit even when validation errors exist or persist. Under Chrome the browser does not submit but throws an error, with the prevent routine under MSIE the debug show up an error in the same line. Chrome: Uncaught TypeError: object is not a function MSIE : Object doesn't support this property or method The line in question : document.forms[0].submit(); Trying document.forms.form1.submit(); // or document.forms['form1'].submit(); doesn't work however document.forms.form1.reset(); or any of the variants of addressing, including the .getEmelentsById("..."); method works fine, I am just stumped as to the problem, the thought that my JS Interpreter is stuffed up did cross my mind... Anyone got any ideas that DOES NOT use JQuery pleas
html, World Wide WebStoimen .submit() You want to submit the form by clicking on a link or some other element http://www.stoimen.com/blog/2010/07/05/document-formsmyform-submit-is-not-a-function/ on the page and this is a simple task. You know that by simply adding something like document.forms[‘the-form-name'].submit() this will work.
However you'd like to submit the form not only by clicking on that particular element, but also is not by clicking on the Enter while the focus is on a input field, and this wont work! That's because you don't have a input type="submit". OK, first thing is to add a hidden input type="submit" - than by clicking both on the Enter keyboard button and on the link with is not a the onclick="document.blah.blah.blah" will submit the form. But this is not true! Than you'll receive the following message: document.forms['myform'].submit() is not a function Why? This isn't working, but ever line seems to be OK. The answer is - don't name the input type="submit" with the trivial - "submit". Just give it another name: CodeProjectRelated posts: Secure Forms with Zend Framework Detecting POST Requests in Zend Framework One Form - Multiple DB Records How to Setup Different Error Messages for Each Zend Form Element Validator How to Sanitize User Input in PHP?
