JavaScript

Form methods and properties - JavaScript

JavaScript has a few built-in methods and properties for dealing with forms. Three of them are especially important:

You can submit a form by using the submit() method. To submit the first form on
the page, do

document.forms[0].submit()

Please note that when a form is submitted by JavaScript the onsubmit event handler
is never executed.
To reset the form, do

document.forms[0].reset()

I assume, but have not tested, that the onreset event handler isn’t executed
either if you reset the form through JavaScript.

Finally, you can change the ACTION of a form if you want to:

document.forms[0].action = 'the_other_script.pl';

This can come in very handily if a form has to be submitted to another script in some
cases.
