The following code works fine. It submits the FORM as expected. However, this only works if there is no submit button present in the FORM. If there is a submit button present, then the below code has no effect. How do I fix this? 


			

			function mySubmit(){
			

			document.myForm.submit();
			

			}

it is not because the submit button is present that the function doesn't work... its probably because you've named the submit button as submit. Once you have a form element with the name 'submit' you'll land up in problems bcoz the element takes precedence over the submit function. Rename the submit button to say 'm_submit' and see...
