passing form onsubmit value for IE using Javascript in DOM scripting

I am dealing with forms with respect to dom scripting ,

in the form for the on submit event , it has areturn value ie

form.onsubmit = ' return Search();' ;

this seems to work in Mozilla but not in IE

i also tried ,

Form.onsubmit = function submitSearch()
{
return Search();
}

Search is a javascript function which searches for the data entered in the search box on submit it should display results ..

I am surprised as this works fine in Mozilla bit not intrenet explorer

but to my vain, its still not working......
Please Help me,, any help will be appriciated

Thanks,
kris

Something like this should work:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. form.onsubmit = function() {
  2.     return Search();
  3. }
where 'form' is a reference to the form.
