can a form submit itself without user click?

[smanning]

Is there any way to make a form submit itself without requiring the user to take any action?

Thanks for any advice.

yes, you can submit a form onload.

using a client side javascript you can also have a form submittal onChange (like in a dropdown list), as well as onBlur or even onFocus on another form item.

I fail to see the point to send a form to the user and then submit it back to the server without the user doing any action.
You can just as well use a server.transfer and skip the clientside part.

Raf makes a good point. If the user is not filling out a field or making a selection from a drop down list why would you want to submit the form?

I looked up server.transfer and it appears to do exactly what I need! Thanks.
