Q176 How can I submit a form using a normal image link?

<FORM NAME="myform">
<A HREF="javascript:document.myform.submit()"><IMG SRC="text1.gif" WIDTH="16" HEIGHT="16" BORDER="0"></A>
</FORM>

However, when using this method the forms onSubmit() event handler is not invoked. Although you can invoke by changing your code to call it directly before submitting the form.
