add submit functionality to the img button

[alcool]

hi,
I would like use a image button like a submit button in a form.
it is possible to do

i.e. (in the end of a form)

<a href="" onClick="funcSubmit()"><img src="../immagini/save.png"
alt="Save" /></a>ù

I hope in your suggestion

If you were to do that, why bother with the A element?

<img onclick="funcSubmit()" ... >

And those without script support, or for whom your script doesn't
work, can't submit the form.

Just curious, why is this not ok for your purpose:

<input type="image" src="../immagini/save.png">

??

Umm, did you try it?

<img onclick="funcSumbit()" src="....">

function funcSubmit(){
document.formID.submit();
}

No need to use a link when images in modern browsers support the
onclick. But, if the only way to submit the form is with JS, what
happens if JS is disabled or not supported?

I know of at least one site where the javascript is so broswer dependent
that that is effectively the case. Still has to be viewed with IE6.

It can only be being backwards-compatible to pre HTML-4-UAs with the
tradeoff of not providing graceful degradation for script-incapable UAs.
