[madhukar_garg]

whether in form tag or elsewhere

What do you want to use in place of the submit button?

[madhukar_garg]

nothing..........

 

if it is possible "by hitting enter key form will post".........??

place it somewhere in the form.

It's just a simple link with a javascript action to it. to change what you're using as the replacement to the button, just change what is between the <a></a>

 

change the 'formname' part in the onclick to whatever your form is called.

onclick="javascript:document.formname.submit();"

 

if you haven't named it, just put the name tag in the form part.. i.e:

<form name="myform" method="post" action="sendform.php">

 

 

EDIT: just caught your last post.. you can do it using javascript, but I'm not sure on the code.. sorry.

try posting in the javascript section

Don't bother with anything then, you can just hit enter from within a form field and it will submit.

[Dragen]

not if you're in a textarea

you should NOT remove a submit button in favour of a javascript link to submit a form...

 

ok have a submit button insside a <noscript> tag if you must but at the very least have one in there..

 

Why do you need to NOt have a submit button?
