This is the way I call a Form handler 'manually'.

Don't know if there is a 'right' or 'wrong' way, but this works for me.

1.      I set up my actual form handlers in some 
'MyFormActionHandler.spy' script
2.      In my form page, I add some onClick (or whatever) javascript 
event that calls a javascript function
3.      I add some 'hidden' input variables in the form tag to manage 
any extra parameters I may wish to pass to the handler
4.      I issue a document.....'FormName'.submit() from the 
javascript function (see javascript manual for method calls)
5.      A simple 'redirect' from the action handler gets me  back to 
any page I need to go to

In this way, using the javascript event handlers (whatever they are), 
I set up a simple MVC framework that works like a dream,

Hope this helps (or have I misread the question -as usual :)
