HTML - Tearing My Hair Out (what's Left Of It): Turn Button Into Link
Hi--
I have this button in a HTML/PHP contact form: <input type="submit" value="Submit" /> Preceded by this script in the Head: <script type="text/javascript"> $(function(){ $('#contact-form').submit(function(e){ e.preventDefault(); var form = $(this); var post_url = form.attr('action'); var post_data = form.serialize(); $('#loader', form).html('<img src="loader.gif" /> Please Wait...'); $.ajax({ type: 'POST', url: post_url, data: post_data, success: function(msg) { $(form).fadeOut(500, function(){ form.html(msg).fadeIn(); }); } }); }); }); </script> That combination works to submit the contact form using a php file called process.php. The problem is, I'd like to make that button into a LINK that does the exact same thing (my site doesn't want a button there). I have tried a javascript link, like so: function submitform() { document.forms["contact-form"].submit(); } </script> Followed by the js link: <a href="javascript: submitform()">Submit This</a> BUT this does not work to submit the form as the button does. Is there any way to do this? Many thanks for any help! I am ready to tear my hair out... Similar TutorialsI have a BUTTON element in which I am placing and image. It looks fine in IE, but firefox is adding some extra left padding to it. Setting margin and padding to the img does not help. Anyone know of a workaround? See the page at http://newsite.mortgageisrael.com/sh....asp?pageid=18 (2 places) HTML: Code: <button type="submit" class="formButton" style="width:77px"><img src="images/submit.gif" alt="Submit"/></button> CSS: Code: .formButton{ font-weight: bold; margin-top: 10px; cursor: pointer; height:25px; border:1px solid black; padding: 0px; text-align:center; } .formButton IMG{ padding: 0px; margin: 0px; } Thanks Hi im not sure if this can be done i have created some buttons to use as links and once i put the a href code in a box appears around the button can i remove this and how plz you can see example of what i mean on my website i have made Home and Contact clickable but i want to remove the box thats around the button if possible http://dreamteam0708.co.uk/ for info: im coding my own html in notepad, not using any programs or anything and my hosting doesnt support php etc I want a link on the button. Means in my site I have a button Register and I want a link on the Button. How it could be possible. Thanks in advance Hello, I posted this on another forum, but didn't get a conclusive response... Is it possible to make an HTML <button> act as a link without using Javascript's onClick handler, or indeed any Javascript at all? I was thinking something like: <a href="some link"><button>GO!</button></a> would work, but it doesn't seem to.

Basically I have made a pretty cool button in Flash, and it works fine -- I have inserted in into my Dreamweaver document fine, but I can't seem to figure out how to make this a link -- I want to make it that when people click the button, they are taken to another page of my site, so I just want to add a link to the SWF object I've inserted. Please could anyone shed some light on this for me please? How do I add a link? I know it can be done as you see Flash buttons that are links all over the internet (mainly ads!) -- so how do I do it (*using Dreamweaver)? Thanks in advance! Mike Hi guys, I have a drop down box via the <select> tag and then a submit button next to it. I want it so that if the drop-down shows "page 1" or something and then you hit "submit" it links to page 1. Same for "page 2" etc.. Is this possible, and how can I do it please! Thank you for any replies posted! Hey, i want to have a button which when pressed notifies me, it is to tell me if a link is broken. I dont want it to open a new page though. Thanks in advance. I'm trying to have an input event also hyperlink to a page! Right now- this is what is happening: -Visitor hovers over an input-button image, this image changes -A second image on a different part of the page also changes when the visitor hovers what I want it to also do: -Visitor can click the button, and then go to a new page. Here is my code: HTML Code: <a href="http://google.com"><input id="A" type=image onmouseover="swap(this , srcA2 , srcXA)" onmouseout="swap(this , srcA , srcX)" value=" "></a> As you can see, I'm using both onmouseover & onmouseout tags. Right now, I'm also using a basic <a href=""></a> hyperlink in order to allow the visitor to click & go to a new page. This works in firefox just fine- but IE does not recognize the input button as a link. Are there any ways to solve this? I'm thinking I should use an OnClick event, but I don't know how to do this! Help would be greatly appreciated! Hi all, I would like to ask for your help here. How can I first have a few radio buttons on my page and when the user select one of those, a text box with a submit button will appear. The text box is for the user to key in some kind of code/password so that it will prompt the user to a url according to the code/password. Example: Code: YAH URL: www.yahoo.com Code: GOO URL: www.google.com And if the user keys the wrong code it will prompt a message box asking them to try again. If the user key the code wrongly for 3 times it will prompt to another url. Ive also attach an example of how it should look like. I would appreciate for your help. Thanks a lot!
