How can you programatically submit a type image

[jw56578]

if i have an Input type Image
how am i suppose to programatically submit it through JS.

code:

<INPUT type="text"
onkeyup="javascript:if(event.keyCode==13){btnClick .click();}">

<INPUT name="btnClick" type="Image" value="Button"
onclick="javascript:alert('button was clicked');">

clicking "btnClick" will raise the onclick event producing 'button was
clicked', but onkeyup of the textbox will not call the click() method

Im using Input type Image because that is what ASP.net produces for an
image button.

input type=image will automatically submit its form onclick.
<input type="image" name="whatever" src="myButton.gif" alt="submit">

No JS required.

The onclick is automatically script. Ditch the "javascript:".
onclick="somefunction();"

There is no such thing as submitting a button. If you want to submit the form
without clicking the button (from another form element handler), use
something like
onClick="this.form.submit();"

That was no help, thanks. But I changed from onkeyup to onkeydown and
it worked, so nevermind.
