inputbox vs. onload and then....

**schiggyblast** · 07-23-2007 10:36 AM

Hi,

i have a submit button + input box, which value i fill with onload in <body>.
if i click the submit button, it will make a formular submit.

my question is: can i replace the submit-button with a js-function on the inputbox that generate the same action as the submit button ??

i have tried "onchange" but it didn't work, because onchange need :

1. a klick to the input box
2. value change
3. another klick outside the input box.

but in my case, i only have a value change of the input box from onload()

thanks for the help

you don't have to have a sumbit button to submit a form!

you can submit the form at anytime you want to using javascript!

document.forms[0].submit();

oooo if i combined settimeout() with your suggestion, i think it would work just fine... i didn't think about .submit() because i want "to admire" the value in inputbox, before the form beeing send. If i have a submit-button it would do the trick and i have time to admire it....

but as i said, settimeout before .submit() would do the trick.. what do you think Robdavid ?

thanks for your help
