on top of that you ONLY need a name for a form when using javascript, AND javascript can be circumventerd. it's better to do the check serverside. it's much more secure

onsubmit would only be used if you're using a JavaScript form checker to ensure the input from the user complies with your requirements. It would take the form of:

onsubmit="functionName()"

However, if you're not checking the form's content using JavaScript, you would not use this attribute at all.

Thanks for the info
I validated and cleaned it all up except for OnSubmit.
What are the accepted values for this? I have been trying to figure that out since this morning!

<form name="loginform" action="chk_login.asp" method="post">
<font color="#000066">User Name</font> 
<input type="text" name="Username" size="16" /><br>
<font color="#000066">Password </font> 
<input type="password" name="Password" size="16" />
<input type="submit" value="Sign In"></form>

I'd highly recommend using a validator to check your code to find simple errors such as these. They help me immensely, so much so that I can often find errors on sight now from exposure to the code.

Hi blelisa,

what about right after the ''?

 <td height="135" valign="top" bgcolor="#EEEEEE">
<form name='somename' action='something' onSubmit='something'>
 <font color="#000066">User 
      Name</font> 
      <input type="text" name="Username" size="16" /><br>
    <font color="#000066">Password </font> 
    <input type="password" name="Password" size="16" />
	<input type="submit" value="Sign In"></form>
	</td>

Vinny
