Auto submit form value and redirect page.

cleanair4me46 · May 17, 2009

I would like to automatically submit a form value everytime a page is viewed and then automatically redirect.

The below doesnt submit anything and I am not sure how to redirect. Please advise.

Code:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function fnSubmit() {
  window.document.mypage.form.submit();
  return;
}
</SCRIPT>

<body onload="fnSubmit()">
<form action="goToPage.jsp" name="mypage" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="mydata"  value="myvalue">
<input type="submit">
</form>

Hi

Remove the [tt]form[/tt] from the reference :

Code:

function fnSubmit() {
  document.mypage.submit();
}

By the way, personally I would do this with [tt]XMLHttpRequest[/tt]. More on this in forum1600.
