I wrote the link out in javascript so that if the form button showed up =
for
the <.noscript> people, they wouldn't have the confusion of a link that
doesn't work and a button that does.  It's a good way to show only =
what's
appropriate for the user.

No Need to put that in a javascript, especially if your specifying in=20
the link that ur using javascript.

Just use this:

<.a href=3D"javascript:document.myform.submit();">link
text<./a>

You can use javascript to submit the form. =A0Of course, this won't=20
work for
browsers without javascript enabled. =A0You could, however, provide a=20
text
link for those who do have javascript, and a form button for those who
don't:

<.script language=3D"javascript">
 =A0document.write('<.a =
href=3D"javascript:document.myform.submit();">link
text<./a>');
<./script>

<.noscript>
 =A0<.input type=3D"submit" value=3D"your text here">
<./noscript>

How can I utilize a text-based link on a form to replace a submit=20
button=20
without compromising the functionality of submit?
I need to pass along a password and deliver that page to the=20
subscriber.
