Location.replace - form

JHB
Hi,

How can I do a location.replace when I use a form, like when I use a href?

This works.
<a href="Ny HTML-side20.htm"; method="post" id="frm" name="BrugerHovedSide"
onsubmit="location.replace(this.href);" >
<input class="ok" type="submit" value="Opfrisk data" id=submit1
name=submit1>
</a>

this dosen't work
<form action="Ny HTML-side20.htm"; method="post" id="frm"
name="BrugerHovedSide" onsubmit="location.replace(this.href);" >
<input class="ok" type="submit" value="Opfrisk data" id=submit1
name=submit1>
</form>
TIA
Jørn

You cannot really.
This works.
Not really
<a href="Ny HTML-side20.htm"; method="post" id="frm"
The ; has no function here, it is wrong html.
method="post" has no function in <a >
name="BrugerHovedSide" onsubmit="location.replace(this.href);" >
<input class="ok" type="submit" value="Opfrisk data" id=submit1
name=submit1>
</a>
onsubmit does not have a function in <a >
you need a <form > for onsubmit

try for <a >:

onclick="location.replace(this.href);return false;"
preventing the href executing while javascript is active in a browser.
this dosen't work
Doesn't it?
<form action="Ny HTML-side20.htm"; method="post" id="frm"
name="BrugerHovedSide" onsubmit="location.replace(this.href);" >
The ; has no function here.

The onsubmit should have a return false;
see above, same syntax as onclick

However the onsubmit false will not execute the form, so no <input >
values will be sent.
<input class="ok" type="submit" value="Opfrisk data" id=submit1
name=submit1>
</form>


Conclusion:

1 For sending form input data the form has to go to the action="" page by
that way.

2 Onsubmit can only be used to prevent execution of the <form> otr to do
some local actions or both.

try:

<form action='' method='post'
onsubmit ='return confirm("Really send this?")'>
<input name='data' value='myValue'>
<input type='submit'>
</form>

This will only execute the form and the data value
if confirm() returns true after clicking it's 'Yes' button/

I gather you mean, loading a url using .replace() by using a form element:

<form onsubmit="return false">
<input type="button" onclick="location.replace(URLGOESHERE)">
</form>
