Change Form Action Attribute?

[Greenster]

Can I change the form action with an onlcick event? My form action is defaulted to "file1.php" but I want it to change to "file2.php" if a user hits a particular button. Is this possible??

I have been trying....

function change_action(mainform){
mainform.action.value = "

http://mydomain/test.php";;

form2.submit();
}
Thanks in advance.

mainform.action = URL

Hope this helps. Gary

Hi,

I have changed the code to:

function change_action(mainform){
mainform.action = "

http://mydomain/test.php"

form2.submit();
}

It does redirect the script but I first get a error "Object doesn't support this property or method" and my POSTED VARS are all lost ? ? ? {Greenster}

ok...

let's see. when reading your code I have the feeling that change_action() only changes the action and then submits the form.

The argument (mainform) of your function is it document.form2?

Could you have a consisten way of accessing your form?

for example :

function change_action(myForm){
myForm.action = "

http://mydomain/test.php";

myForm.submit();
}
then later in the code

change_action(document.form2)

or simply :

function change_action(newAction){
document.form2.action = newAction;
document.form2.submit();
}
then later in the code :

change_action("

http://mydomain/test.php")

I have the feeling that mainform didn't really exist and that document.form2 is what you want to change. Gary
