I have a form page, of whereby one clicks on a button, that is to activate a Javascript function, of which is to help navigate around the form.


In IE, that is what happens. To click the up button, the menu of which is shown inside a textarea tag, scrolls up.

However in FF, it seems to trigger the 'submit' function.


What have I done wrong.

Should I have something in each of the functions that would abort any submit action.

I do not have any doc type tag, I do not see the need for them, at least they do not seem to be required for IE, but does FF require doc type tags? and if so, what type of doc type tag should I have?

If you don't provide the link or code it's hard to help you.

At this moment, this page is only on my pen drive, but I shall upload it in the next day or two, and then provide you a link to it then.

Ok, here is the link to the page of which seems to play up in Firefox.

I'd recommend you use slightly better names for your vaiables...
I also noticed that no matter what button I click it always submits afterwards in Opera.
And by God is it ugly.

Quick check I couldn't find the error. I'll check back later when I have a little bit more time.

I seem to have fixed the problem,

Where I had <button onclick= function

I replaced it with <a href="javascript:functon & <div combination

I no longer have the problem with Firefox acting like it was the submit button of which was triggered.
