define the submit button

reneecccwest

Hello, I'd like to pass the "levelbtn" value when I click the filter
button, but there are also other submit form buttons.

I defined as "document.testform.submit();" in the javascript, but I
don't think it is right.

<input type="submit" name="innerbtn" value="inner" />

<input type="submit" name="outerbtn" value="outer" />

</form>

Correct. Submit will be impossible without JavaScript then, aside from
the fact that you never know what is considered the default submit button.

There is the URL of the DTD (the system identifier) missing before
it is Valid HTML. The W3C Markup Validator is misguiding here as
it uses an Open Catalog for mapping DOCTYPE declarations to files.

I hope this is different in the real document.

This should read

<script type="text/javascript">

You better place the script in the "head" element.
<form name="testform" method="post" action="test02.cfm">
<form
action="test02.cfm"
method="post"
onsubmit="return submitForm(this)">
<input type="text" name="leveltype" value="" />

<input type="text" name="officename" value="" />

<input type="Button" name="levelbtn" value="Filter"
onclick="submitForm()" />

<input type="submit" name="innerbtn" value="inner" />

<input type="submit" name="outerbtn" value="outer" />
This is not XHTML, and there are default values for
some attributes, so you can safely omit them.

<input name="leveltype">
<input name="officename">
<input type="submit" name="levelbtn" value="Filter">
<input type="submit" name="innerbtn" value="inner">
<input type="submit" name="outerbtn" value="outer">
</form>
