When a form is submitted the page is refreshed. You will need to use server-side coding if you want to display a message after the form submits.

<script type="text/javascript">
function check() {
  document.forms[0].OK.focus();
  document.forms[0].OK.blur();
  return true;
}
</script>

<form ... onsubmit="return check();">
  ...
  <input type="text" id="OK" onblur="location.href='Submitted.htm';" />
</form>

The form will not be on the page after it has been submitted unless you include it in the page that you are submitting it to as well - which is rather pointless unless your server side script needs to display errors.

To display a thankyou message after the form is submitted simply include that in the HTML of the page that displays after the form is submitted.
