[JAVASCRIPT] Submit function

[SarahNcl]

Hi

Can anyone help with a puzzling problem:

I have a form and the form has an action, to an external url and a method of post. This form is used to log into a website that is not ours.

If i put a button into the form labelled sumbit then the user is logged into this new form.

However if i use the following code then we are redirected to the page but not logged in.

<a onclick="javascript: Login();">Click here to login</a>

<script>
function Login()
{
theplusForm = document.forms['plusLogin'];

theplusForm.submit();
}
</script>
Anyone have any ideas?

Is plusLogin the name of the form?
what happens if you go

document.plsLogin.submit();

or is there more than one form on the page?

plusLogin is the name of the form.

Unfortunately this code does not work either

Two suggestions:

Try this:

<a href="#" onclick="java script: Login();">Click here to login</a>

And the other suggestion would be to use a submit button that has the action equal to the full URL of the page that it's to be submitted to.
