Post form into dialog window by clicking a link

问题

I'm trying to make this piece of code work.

<form name="myform" onsubmit="alert('1');"> </form>
<a href="javascript: void(0);" onclick="document.myform.submit();">ok</a>

However nothing happens when I click "ok". Where have I mistaken?

回答1:

The browser does not trigger the onsubmit event if you call the submit method programmatically. Therefore, if the form is using the form validator script, call the onsubmit method also to trigger the validation.

http://www.javascript-coder.com/javascript-form/javascript-form-submit.phtml (there's also an example)

So, your form is posted but onsumbit is not triggered.
