Javascript and forms

[tyrannus]

I have a form that has many text fields and if I add in a simple submit button, if the enter key is pressed while in a field it will submit the form. This I do not want. Instead I want to use onclick to call a javascript function that will submit when clicked only, the enter key does nothing.

I found this script but it does not work:

javascript:
<script language="JavaScript">

function submitform(form)
{
document.myform.submit();
}
</script>
myform is the name of the form.

then for the button I have this:

<input type="button" onClick="return submitform()" name="submit" value="Send">

I need for this to work in both IE and Firefox. I just cannot seem to get it to work.

Don't name your button submit, try changing it to something like mySubmit. I don't know that it will fix the problem but at least it's dodging one potential problem:

<input type="button" onClick="return submitform()" name="[!]mySubmit[/!]" value="Send">
