>From my understanding the onSubmit="return true;" code just allows the form to be submitted. See http://www.htmlcodetutorial.com/forms/_FORM_onSubmit.html
I noticed in your pasted output, the "this" is removed from the anchor tags. Could this be the issue?

I was able to get the object successfully under FF and IE. I view the contents of this object using simple alerts and JS console in FF. The problem is when submitting the form the event doens't go through. S2 adds the attribute for the form (onSubmit="return true;") which is making things harder. It works fine when using buttons to submit but with anchors it's not . :/ Forsberg, Mike wrote: > I've never used the this.parentNode.submit() in a form. That might only > work in Firefox.
