Hi all,

I have a form that onSubmit it validates the address. My problem is that it is also affecting my back button so when one hits back it tries to validate the form. Can I just have the back button go back without validating the form? Example below.

<form action="##Form1URL##" name=msswe method=post onsubmit="return formBillValidate();">

<--Code taken out because of length-->

<input type="image" onclick="show_prompt()" name="Submit" id="checkout" style="float:right; margin-top: 10px;" src="/set-dur/images/continue_to_checkout.png" alt="Checkout" />

<a href="http://www.duracoinc-test.com/mss-lx/mss-shop.nsf/WebEngine?OpenAgent "><input type="image" src="/set-dur/images/back.png" alt="back" style="float:right; margin: 10px 10px 0px 0px;" /></a>

</div>
</form>

I remember running into this problem awhile back. It seemed the issue was that any input that was type="image" was always treated as a submit button (or something similar).

I'm not sure the code you have in place around it - but you could remove the input on the back button and style the href with css instead.

Thanks! That worked.
