Details
if a form contains a submit button and an attempt is made to simulate the
pressing of submit button from a javascript function using DOM and function
document.forms[0].submit(), the simulation does not happen. The following web
page does send out emails every one minute on Internet exporer . However it
does not simulate the keypress on Mozilla. Help required. I am attaching the
web page :
<HEAD>
</HEAD>
<SCRIPT>
function loadvalues()
{top.loaded = true;
setTimeout("sendautomail();",3000);
};
function sendautomail(){
// self.frames[0].location.href="testppsServlet.html";
var i = 0;
index1=1;
if (index1 == 1)
sendspecificmail();
intervalid = top.setInterval("sendspecificmail() ;",60000);
};
function sendspecificmail()
{
document.forms[0].submit();
//top.frames[1].document.write("The Email Number Sent Now Is ");
//top.frames[1].document.write(index1);
// top.frames[1].document.writeln("<BR>");
//top.frames[1].document.close();
index1++;
//if(index1 == noofurl)
//{//clearinterval(intervalid);
// index1 = 0;} ;
};
</SCRIPT>
<BODY onload="loadvalues();">
<CENTER>
<FONT FACE = "Times" SIZE = 3>

The problem here is that mailto: actions for forms are not yet implemented.
When they are, by the way, they will require user interaction to actually send
the mail...
