stockton Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 I have the following code in my intranet page and the button when clicked in Firefox works fine but it appears that IE just ignores it.

ToonMariner Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 you don't need an anchor if you are submitting information form a form then the submit button is what you should use. If you use and anchor then you rely on javascript being enabled to do teh submission for you - and that is not always the case.
