You're welcome, macmec. Of course, my solution breaks if the user has
javascript and/or images disabled.
In your original question, you mentioned that some of your forms have
multiple buttons. I wondered if they also have more than one submit button
that POST to more than one form. Just for grins, and because I need a break
from my current headache, I thought I'd beef up my example to show you one
way to have each image submit to it's own target form. You were already
heading there when you said you might check the image id on the server to
see if it was the submit image. Do the same with my code, using a switch to
examine the ID of the image that triggered the function as follows:
< form method="post" name="myForm" action="">
< img src="myImage1.gif" id="sImg1" onClick="submitForm(event);">
< img src="myImage2.gif" id="sImg2" onClick="submitForm(event);">
< img src="myImage3.gif" id="sImg3" onClick="submitForm(event);">
< /form>
< script>
var submitted=false;
function submitForm(e) {
if (!e) var e = window.event;
var o = getEventSource(e);
if (!submitted) {
submitted=true;
switch (o.id) {
case sImg1:
document.myForm.action="myTargetForm1.asp";
break;
case sImg2:
document.myForm.action="myTargetForm2.asp";
break;
case sImg3:
document.myForm.action="myTargetForm3.asp";
case default:
submitted=false;
}
document.myForm.submit();
}
}
function getEventSource(x) {
if (x.target) var o = x.currentTarget; else if (x.srcElement) var o =
x.srcElement;
if (!o) if (window.event) var o = window.event.srcElement;
return o;
}
< /script>
