javascript rollover submits
i have them in all but the main (alix version) of a site.. development base can be found here: http://24.91.157.113/findyourdesire/
problem is that while mozilla, netscape and such have it work fine.
however. M$IE fails to do anything with the javascript.
this is a problem since most people have been assimilated by the M$
here's the function i call to do the submit
function subfrm(choice){ document.getElementById(choice).submit(); return true; } // submit a formPOSIX. because a stable os that doesn't have memory leaks and isn't buggy is always good.

ok. this seems to be something that's intermittent at best...

as i state there, in any of the submits using an image, M$IE 4.x on Win 95 and M$IE 6.x on win xp pro seems to fail
obviously this is a massive problem on some pages since the javascript submit on some sets one or two hidden variables.

Point me to a form which fails. I don't know which version of the site to look in or where the problem area is.

right now findyourdesire.com has the version that fails.
try using the find user button. that one works, but the login one does not.
go to the login page. same thing.
any page that has a form other than the quicksearch in the navigation bar fails in internet explorer.
problem is that the forums require certain hidden variables to be set, thus the need for the javascript functions.
ok. so some playing proves it only dislikes logging in.
yet it calls the function like the others do. it doesnt like it on login.php nor index.php.
and only in internet error

sometimes answers appear when seemingly dumb questions are asked, so here goes nothing....
i believe that most use the relative url "page.php" rather than the full url... could that be the problem for M$ internet error? (aka M$ internet evil)

just checked.
login.php uses $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] which comes out as /login.php
the rest just use the page since it's relative. testing this theory by changing the index to login.php instead of $aurl/login.php
($aurl is a variable i have set in an include that is the absolute url so that i can modify some things that need it between the dev server and deployment server)
