using graphics to submit a form?

taval · Sep 5, 2000

I need some help in making submit button into graphics that when clicked upon carry out the same function as the submit button.

Currently my code looks like this:

--------------------------------------------------------

<HTML>
<BODY>
<FORM METHOD="POST" NAME="login" ACTION="webdb.asp" onSubmit="return checkPass()">

<TABLE width=600 align = center>
<TR>
<TD align=center BGCOLOR=#000077>
<font face="Arial,Helvetica" color=#ffffff><font size=+2>Internet BackPocket Database</font></font>
</TD>
<td align=center>
<img src="bp_logo_sm.gif" >
</td>
</TR>

<TR>
<TD BGCOLOR=#FFFFCC>
List all customers with BackPocket service
</TD>
<TD align= center>
<input name="Customers" type="submit" value="Customers" onclick="javascript:gotonectpage(this);">
</TD>
</TR>

<TR>
<TD BGCOLOR=#FFFFCC>
...... other submit buttons with values

--------------------------------------------------------

For example my first submit button carries the value "Customers", how would I replace the submit button with a graphic but have the same effect as just clicking the submit button.

Grateful for any help. Thanks.

you just need to replace
<input type="submit"...
with
<input type="image" src="..."...
but beware! ii will send x&y coordinates of click-point to server.
If you specify name you will in your example receive Customers.x=...&Customers.y=...
if you don't specify, you will receive simply x=...&y=... [sig]<p>Michael Dubner<br>Brainbench MVP/HTML+JavaScript<br>
