why JS in asp not working

havey · 04-19-2006, 06:45 AM

there's some code the JS in the ASP Else case which does not initstantiate the form to post, the page displays under the right condition but no js working. The code in the else case works if i cut and paste into a new browser. Does not seem to work in this asp situation, any ideas how?

Code:

<%	
If gstrProfessionId = "4" Then   
%>
<!--#include file="registrationContinued2.asp"-->
<% 
ElseIf gstrProfessionId = "11" Then  
%>
<!--#include file="registrationindustry2.asp"-->
<% 
ElseIf gstrProfessionId = "1" Then  
%>
<!--#include file="registrationnurse2.asp"-->
<%
ElseIf gstrProfessionId = "3" Then  
%>
<!--#include file="registrationpharamist2.asp"-->
<% 
Else
'   also tried code below as an include like above without any luck
%>

<html><head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function setFocus(){
document.registrationFrm.submit();
}
window.onload = setFocus;
</script>
</head><body>
<form action="validate.asp" method="POST" name="registrationFrm">
<% 
For Each thing In Request.Form 
Response.Write "<input type=""hidden"" name=""" & thing & """ value=""" & Request.Form(thing) & """>" & vbCrLf 
Next 
%>
<p align="center"> <p align="center">

<input type="submit" value="Submit" />

</form>
</body>
</html>


<%
End If
%>

What error are you getting?

the js error is object does not support this property of method and points to this line:

document.forms['registrationFrm'].submit();

I have even tried using a setTimeInterval and when the time runs out i get the same error:

</form>
<script>
window.onload = function(){
setTimeout("damnDelay()", 3000); //2 secs
}

function damnDelay() {
document.forms['registrationFrm'].submit();
}
</script>

//could this be happening becasue i'm under a SSL ?

Add a name to your button. Note the Uppercase S

Code:

<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit" />
