I should not need an actual Button if my link to checkForm()

        ends with

document.inputForm.submit(); which tells the form to submit,

        well, you should be right...
        but I remember a year ago or so I had a similar problem and
        the image
        input solved it... but I'm not sure whether it was exactly the
        same
        problem or not, so it might be complete bullshit ;)

Okay, I edited my page per some suggestions

        here.  Below is
        what I now have:

<script language="JavaScript"> function checkForm() { // ** START ** if (inputForm.cc_phone_number.value == "") {

    alert( "Please enter a phone number." );
    inputForm.cc_phone_number.focus();
    return;

} ******Lots of other checks here, just left out for

        length******

document.inputForm.submit(); } </script> <title></title> <LINK rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"

        href="../../CSS/background.css">

</head> <body> <div align="center"> <h2></h2> <h3>Submit a New Payment.</h3> </div> <form name="inputForm" action="save.php"

        method="post"

enctype="multipart/form-data"> ******Lots of form data here****** <table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0"

        cellspacing="0"

width="680"> <tr> <td width="64" align="left"><a

        href="javascript:checkForm()"

title="Save">Save</a></td> <td width="616" align="left"><a

        href="javascript:closeThis()"

title="Close">Close</a></td> </tr> </table> </form> </body> </html> Now when I submit my page it still perfroms all of

        the
        javascript checks

correctly, but once it gets to the

        document.inputForm.submit(); part it

returns the following error. Error: Object doesn't support this property or

        method.

Code: 0

        maybe because you don't have submit button in the
        form?
        try to include something like this
        <input type="image" src="./images/spacer.gif">
        where spacer.gif is an 1x1 blank image

        I remember some similar situation where it helped,
        but I'm not
        sure

        hope that helps

I have a form that uses Javascript to validate

After the Javascript processing is complete, it

        submits
        the form to my

save

page. However it seems that once the processing

        is
        complete and it passes

to

the save page, none of my $_POST variables are

        being
        passed.

Of course, all of your form fields need to be

        inside the
        same

<form></form> tags as your submit button. The

        sample HTML
        you posted

did not indicate that you'd done this. Regards, Paul __________________________ Paul Novitski Juniper Webcraft Ltd. http://juniperwebcraft.com
