this isnt reallt a php question but I'll answer it anyhow because Ive been stuck with netscapes incompatabilities before. do this. <input type=image border="0" name="sub" src="genre.png" onsubmit="set_category()">

onSubmit is not an event for the input type image... it is for the <form.. > tag... it should look like <form name="" action="something" onSubmit="func()"> this would be activated by clicking on a "input type=submit" and NOT a "input type=image"...

if that doesnt work you'll have todo this. <script> function set_category() { alert("category set"); document.formMoviesSearch.submit(); } </script> ... <input type='hidden' name='sub' value=''> <img src="genre.png" onclick="set_category()"> or if you want the hand to show up over the image. change the <img> tag to <a href='javascript: set_category()'><img src="genre.png"></a> -- Chris Lee lee@mediawaveonline.com "Neil Freeman" <neil.freeman@asa.co.uk> wrote in message news:3BAB51B3.65C8CDBD@asa.co.uk... Hi, I have a form which contains an: <input type=image When the user clicks this image I want a javascript function to be called. I have added an onclick event to this input line (see code below) which works great in IE and all is well. Netscape doesn't recognise this onclick event though for the image so how do you call a javascript function here? Normally I'd wrap an <img with <a></a> tags but I don't think a form will like this. Has anyone a solution? Here is my code ############################# <head> <title>imagesubmit.htm</title> <script> function set_category() { alert("category set"); } </script> </head> <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000"> <?php if ($submit_form) //if this equals true then the form has been submitted { echo "<script>alert(\"form submitted\");</script>"; } else { echo "<script>alert(\"not submitted\");</script>"; } ?> <form name="formMoviesSearch" method="post" action="imagesubmit.htm"> <input type=image border="0" name="sub" src="genre.png" onclick="set_category()"> <input type="hidden" name="submit_form" value="true"> </form> </body> </html> ############################# Neil -------------------------------- Email: neil.freeman@asa.co.uk
