Answer 1

You need to actually return false from your inline dom-0 handler. So change

onsubmit = "post();">

to

onsubmit = "return post();">

---

Or you could give your form an id and do this:

Then from a safe location in which your dom is ready:

document.getElementById("form1").onsubmit = post;
