Simple script won't work - why?

Simple script won't work. Why?

function sendIt(module) {

var flagged = document.form1.getElementById("e_flagger").value;
if (module == 'test') {
alert("Test OK:" + " " + flagged);
}

<form name="form1" method="post" onSubmit="sendIt('test');"
<input type="text" size="1" name ="flager" value="Flag">
<input type=submit value="Test It">
</form>

First, you have no element with ID "e_flagger".

Secondly, I believe that document.form1.getElementById is invalid (the
correct form being document.getElementById)

What are you trying to do?
