Submit Form

[Matthew256]

How can I submit this form on criteriaBlur?

<form>
<input type="text" name="criteria1 " onblur="criteri aBlur(this);">
</form>

function criteriaBlur( obj ) {
if( ... ) {
//submit form
}
}

Give your form an ID and then submit() the form:

document.forms['formID'].submit();

But, for the record, that is a dumb way to submit a form.

Thanks for your help!

"Cleaner way"? Sure:

obj.form.submit ();

Thanks for your help!

Thanks for not top-posting next time.
