Doing it this way will still not do what you would expect. It will
still submit the form. What you need to do is return a boolean which
signifies if the form would be submitted.

html:

<form method = "post" name - "formWin" onsubmit = "return check();">

js:

function check()
{
/*
return true if you want the form to be submitted
return false otherwise
*/
}

if I use document.formWin.submit(); for to send the datas
onSubmit="check() not work more;

If you wish to submit the form yourself, then in combination with the
above, you can do something like the following:

if(check())
{
document.forms["formWin"].submit();
}
