To clarify further... You have to use a Tapestry Form component, not a regular HTML form. Otherwise there are important things you can't do: - you can't use the Errors component to display the errors (eg. ). Tapestry depends on it being within a T5 Form. - you can't refer to the Form in the p

* Naturally I'd have preferred to use "t:hidden" rather than "t:textfield" for the hidden field. Unfortunately, I get the error "Unable to resolve 'hidden' to a component class name." I think Hidden was added in Tapestry 5.1 so if you're using 5.0 "hidden" won't be an existing component. *

Perhaps something like this? Not tested at all but I suppose it ought to work. in your template: window.onload = function () { alert('about to submit'); document.forms[0].firstChild.value = 'i just set the hidden value'; document.forms[0].submit(); }; in your cla
