So change the the input button to a link...
Same code and everything, just:

function
ckVal(oElm){ 

document.getElementById("aLink").disabled = (oElm.value == "Some
text...")? true : false; 
document.getElementById("aLink").onclick = function (){
return (this.disabled)? false : true; // This is
necessary to disable the built-in behavior of the link
} 
}


<input type="text" value="Some text..." onChange="checkVal(this)">

<a id="aLink" href="http://www.google.com">A link</a>


BTW, this will only work in IE 5.5.+...


/Robert

function checkVal(oElm){
if(oElm.value == "Some text..."){
document.getElementById("submitButton").disabled = true; } else{
document.getElementById("submitButton").disabled = true; } }

(or a neater version of the function:

function checkVal(oElm){
document.getElementById("submitButton").disabled = (oElm.value == "Some
text...")? true : false; }

)

<input type="text" value="Some text..." onChange="checkVal(this)">

<input id="submitButton" name="submitButton" type="submit"
value="Submit">
