Re: submit onchange not working

if the form has any form field named 'submit' than just rename it to 'submit2' or anything else than 'submit'. run the code.

If it still doesn't works provide more detail about the code.

okay, i agree upon the previous reply.

Replace your Double Quotes by Single Quotes, and vice versa.

  1. echo "<form action='show.php' method='post' onChange='this.submit()'><select><option value selected>select</option><option value='1'>1</option><option value='2'>2</option></select><input type='submit' value='submit'></form> ";

i was referring to replacing of the double quotes with single quotes. i was just wondering why you would do that. I really doesn't make much of a difference.

Re: submit onchange not working

Thank you. My problem was the onchange was in the option not the select. Every other site neglects to mention that.
