Form submit on load

#1

Hi

I have a form with hidden fields that gather information from another form.

I would like this form to submit itself as soon as it is loaded.
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to do this and if so how?

Thanks in advance

don't get why you'd wanna do it but it would be something like:-

<body onload="document.MyForm.submit();">

doesn't seem to work in NS 4.75 though or defo won't work for non JS users.

I want to use the Pay Pal shopping cart on my site. The button and code they
provide create a form with hidden fields to link to your cart. I am using a
DHTML menu system on my site which will only point to a URL or run a
JavaScript command and I want to use it to open the cart.
My thought was to open a page with the hidden fields and have it submit
automatically. Maybe there is a better way?
