Remember that getElementById is the "standards-compliant" method, the others
are not, IIRC. They of course work too, but when manipulating DOM objects,
getElementById is supposed to be used, according to the current standards.
Is there such a thing as casting in JS? I'm not sure. I don't think there is
as far as object references go anyway, but I could be wrong.

I geuss, some thing working or not working in JavaScript is a lot dependent
on what version of what browser, are you using.
Well, Any ways, from my previous experience with JavaScript, usually
document.getElementById gives you an object, and casting it to form doesnt
work all the time..
it is always better to use document.forms[i].action .
Thanks and Regards,

Why do you believe this does not work? I just tried in IE and it worked
fine, as I would expect since I do this sort of thing all the time.
I would suggest throwing an alert before and after the code setting the
action, display what the action of the form is. I did this and it does
indeed change.
