Problem with Form Submit()

I have this function that doesn't seem to work on Internet Explorer,
but works on Firefox.

Below is the code. I get the form object. I set the action and I
submit the form. It is erroring out on the newForm.submit(); I am
getting "Object doesn't support this property or method". PLEASE HELP!

var newForm = document.getElementById('myForm');
newForm.action="action.asp";
newForm.submit();

does it work if you put the full call on the submit line:

i.e.

document.getElementById('myForm').submit();

Nope!

And I tried

document.all.forms(0).submit();
document.all.myForm.submit();
document.forms.myForm.submit();

All with the same result.!

There is no submit button...I am calling this function just based on a
link.

<a href="javascript:submitForm();" class="buttontextbig">Submit
Form</a>

<form method="post" id="myForm" name="myForm" style="margin:0;">

NEVERMIND! It was one of those stupid mistakes that you spend all of
your time overlooking!

This is how I had my body tag. See the problem?
<body onload="javascript:init()")

There is a ) instead of a >.

You haven't shown us the relevent HTML, in which you no doubt have
a control named "submit". Change the name of that control so that
newForm.submit correctly resolves to the method instead of to the
control object.

You also have a useless "javascript:" label:

<body onload="init()">
