Submit a form, not working...

[Peter Lauri]

Best groupmember,

I am working on a login form that uses md5 as cryptation. I have got
everything to work exept the submit() function. I have verified that
all rows work except the last on:

function goForm(){
val = this.document.forms.formul.password.value;
md5 = hex_md5(val);
this.document.forms.formul.password.value = md5;
this.document.forms.formul.action = "login.php";
this.document.forms.formul.submit(); //Only this row is not working
}

-- Best Of Times

this.document.forms.formul.submit(); //Only this row is not working
}

The most common cause of this problem is having a form element named "submit",
which clobbers the submit() method. If you have such an element, change its
name.

And where does "val" come from?

val comes from...

function goForm(){
val = this.document.forms.formul.password.value; //The form that is
submitting the password, ok?
md5 = hex_md5(val);<----- ???
