Hi all
How can I cause a form to automatically submit after a controlled amount of time?
Do I have to have ASP generate JavaScript statements? If it needs to be
JavaScript how do I call the function with out an onClick or other event.
It needs to submit after the timer expires.
Can you give me a code sample?
Thanks
Charles

checkout the setTimeout function in Javascript, this with the form
submission as the action should solve you problem.

Try something like this...I have not tested it..
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=3Djavascript>
<!--
function CloseAndSubmit () {
document.form.submit()
self.close();
}
function settime(){
setTimeout("CloseAndSubmit()", 200);
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
.......the onload can be either on the body or form
<BODY onLoad=3D"settime()">
