Simple probably; javascript for form submission

[Jim Skehill]

Nothing complicated. Just define UserName and Password as input tags. The
HTML I have is:
			...
                <tr> 
                  <td width="33%" height="29"><font size="2" face="Verdana,
Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Login ID</font></td>
                  <td width="67%"><input type="text" name="UserName"
onKeyPress="return checkEnter(event, document.login)"/></td>
                </tr>
                <tr> 
                  <td width="33%" height="32"><font size="2" face="Verdana,
Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Password</font></td>
                  <td width="67%"><input type="password" name="Password"
onKeyPress="return checkEnter(event, document.login)"/></td>
                </tr>
			...

Thanks!

  I am having the same problem that I am having with Lance's example
though. When I try to submit the form by clicking on the text the
pagereloads properly but no data was sent. In this case I am also trying
to perform a login so I need to send the username and password which
doesn't seem to be happening. Do I need to do something special to pass
the values from the form?

Thanks!!
