AW: AW: [Newbee] <input type="image" ...> to switch

Hi Alex,

As far as I know just converting submit to image buttons won't solve your
problem. (X)HTML Forms only can have one submit button (and one reset
button)! Did you check out JavaScript to bypass this behaviour? The
following solution works in Mozilla - (check out if this is true for
Internet Explorer, too):

<form action="#" name="myform" method="post">

	....
	<input type="submit" value="back" 
		onClick="document.myform.action='back.do'"> 
	<input type="submit" value="forward"
onClick="document.myform.action='forward.do'">
</form>

Greetings,

Berny



 Had you tried JavaScript

Your point. I already know that this kind of HTML-element exists.

The problem is that i've written a StrutsCX-application where in almost 
every dialog is one <input type="text"...> and three <input 
type="submit"...> (backward, abort, forward) in the same form. If i put 
something in the textfield and press enter the first of the three submit 
buttons executes and i go backwards through the dialogs. I've tried to 
fix this behavior, which means that by pressing enter the third button 
executes, but i wasn't successful. So i want to avoid the enter feature 
and convert all submit buttons to image buttons.

In the abstract no problem but i've only one big BaseAction#exceute 
where i've decided which dialog is the next. But i think with this 
conversion it is a problem, because no request is send to the 
StrutsCX-Servlet or may i be wrong?

Thanks
Alex Bischof
