Images acting as Buttons

[Anon]

I have a problem where I am using two images which act as a submit and reset button.

I have a bit of javascript which uses the following code:

onclick = "javascript: this.page.submit()"

and ...

onclick = "javascript: this.page.reset()"

If I click the image, the enquiry form clears, but the form posting method/action is also processed.

Can anyone help?

try adding "return false;" to the reset()

onclick = "javascript: this.page.reset();return false;"

Adding the "return false" doesn't seem to work. Are there any other methods I could use.

I've read that be doing things like this:
javascript: void(this.page.reset()) you can avoid things like this... don't know if it works, though 🙂

Hope it helps, Arni

Bob,
It sounds as if you are using the
<input type="image"... tag for BOTH the reset and submit.

You should only use it for the submit button, which would explain why when you click reset, it also submits the form.

change your reset "button" to use this
<a href="javascript:resetForm();"><img src="my-reset-image.gif" height="x" width="x" border="0"></a>

and you should have a javascript function called "resetForm()" that just does

document.frmName.reset();
return false;

hth..
