Hello all, Is it possible to submit the form by clicking on the link and not on the submit button? In other words I would like to submit my form without having the submit button present. Now, I now I can do this using JavaScript on client side, by doing something like: <a href="MyFunc();"> The Link </a> MyFunc() { form.submit(); } So is it possible to do this without JavaScript ?

Not without javascript, clicking on a lick causes a GET. Clicking on a form button causes a POST. I could be wrong, but I'm pretty certain that's the convention. -Michel

I guess thats not the point here. Sure you can use POST for forms as well as GET. You can even "construct" A form-like URL for GET using ?var=value&var2=value but you cannot send something inside forms without javascript over a href-tag. Best regards Tino Wildenhain
