    text
    copied!<p>I am trying to submit a form through onclick event on tag. I have tried triggering document.myform.submit(), this.form.submit(), parentNode.submit() etc. but none of this is working! Using a submit button, the code works fine. But I want to use tag in place of that. Need some help.</p> <pre><code> &lt;form id="myform" name="myform" method="POST" action="process_edit_questionnaire.php?project=&lt;?php echo $project_id; ?&gt;"&gt; &lt;input name="module" type="hidden" value="&lt;?php echo $module_id;?&gt;"/&gt; &lt;input name="project" type="hidden" value="&lt;?php echo $project_id;?&gt;"/&gt; &lt;input name="hidden_ques_id" type="hidden" value="&lt;?php echo $data_array_ques[$j]['ques_id'];?&gt;"/&gt; &lt;div id="question_block"&gt; &lt;div id="serial_block"&gt; &lt;p id="s_original_&lt;?php echo $j+1; ?&gt;"&gt;&lt;a href="#" onclick="showSelectBox(&lt;?php echo $j+1; ?&gt;)"&gt;Serial : &lt;?php if($data_array_ques[$j]['ques_position']==NULL){ echo $j+1; } else { echo $data_array_ques[$j]['ques_position']; } ?&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p id="s_select_box_&lt;?php echo $j+1; ?&gt;" style="display: none;"&gt;Serial : &lt;select name="serial"&gt; &lt;?php for($p=1;$p&lt;=count($data_array_ques);$p++){ ?&gt; &lt;option value="&lt;?php echo $p; ?&gt;" &lt;?php if($p==$data_array_ques[$j]['ques_position']){ echo "selected=\"selected\"";} ?&gt; &gt;&lt;?php echo $p; ?&gt;&lt;/option&gt; &lt;?php } ?&gt; &lt;/select&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="question_text"&gt; &lt;a href="#" onclick="showTextBox(&lt;?php echo $j+1; ?&gt;)"&gt;&lt;p id="q_original_&lt;?php echo $j+1; ?&gt;"&gt;&lt;?php echo $data_array_ques[$j]['ques_text']; ?&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;p id="q_text_box_&lt;?php echo $j+1; ?&gt;" style="display:none;"&gt;&lt;textarea id="ques_text" name="ques_text" rows="3" cols="30"&gt;&lt;?php echo $data_array_ques[$j]['ques_text']; ?&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="menu_block"&gt; &lt;a href="" onclick="document.myform.submit()"&gt;Save Changes&lt;/a&gt; | &lt;a href="delete_question.php?project=&lt;?php echo $project_id; ?&gt;&amp;module=&lt;?php echo $module_id; ?&gt;"&gt;Delete This Question&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre>
