Nothing to stop your OpenWindow() function doing a submit as in:

<button type="button" onclick="OpenWindow(this.form)">Submit</button>

function OpenWindow (formPtr)
     {

     // Some actions

     formPtr.submit ();

     }

Personally I never submit forms. I use ajax to communicate with PHP scripts and do something with the data that is returned by the script. You can see a simple example at http://www.clothears.org.uk
