This script works fine in IE...the page responds as though the button were clicked. But not in Firefox, Opera or Safari.
Code:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"><![CDATA[<!--
/* Service-specific script goes here */
function func1()
{
 document.getElementById('btnSave').click();
}
window.onload=func1; 
//-->      ]]></script>
...and the button looks like this:
Code:
<input type="button" value="" name="btnSave" onclick="javascript: {ddwrt:GenFireServerEvent(concat('__insert;__commit;__redirectsource;__redirectToList={',ddwrt:EcmaScriptEncode($ListName),'};'))}" style="border-style: none; border-color: #FFFFFF; height: 2px; background-color: #FFFFFF;" />
Any ideas?
 
That's because your using getElementBy[red]Id[/red] but your button doesn't have an ID. IE mistakenly uses the name property as the ID so it works.

Give your button and actual id of btnSave and it will work in the other browsers.

Thanks Vacunita, that was it! Really appreciate it. It's always these little things that seem to get past me.
