Searches, using javascript to post forms.

I'm trying to search 2 databases with 1 input...

Here are the 2 forms that are used to search the seperate databases.
------------------
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Account Verification</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<!-- (c)1998 AirTouch -->
<P ALIGN="center">

<H2>(Account Verification)</H2>
<HR align="center">
<H3>Enter the customer's <FONT COLOR="#ff0000">mobile number</FONT> or their <FONT COLOR="#ff0000">account number, billing system, market and district</FONT> below:</H3>
<BR>
<FORM ACTION="/jstage_mgr/plsql/jstage_meprofile.verify_acct" METHOD="post">

<br><input type='button' value="Search" onclick='submitthem()'>

<SCRIPT>
function submitthem()
{
var f = document.forms["f"];

var w1 = window.open('about :blank','trg1','location=yes,menubar=yes;height='+screen.height+';width='+(screen.width / 2))
w1.focus();
var w2 = window.open('about :blank','trg2','location=yes,menubar=yes;height='+screen.height+';width='+(screen.width / 2))
w2.moveTo((screen.width / 2),0)
w2.focus();

f.action = 'http://app1.idc.vzwcorp.com:5191/login/user/retailaccountresult'; //the 1st site
f.target = 'trg1'; //the 1st window name

It looks like your are using HTML, JavaScript, and some kind of CGI (jstage_meprofile.verify_acct)

Is this a Java Question?
Sorry if I sound rude, but JavaScript is a completely different language than Java. The syntex is the same (Except for declaring methods (Functions), and java is OO), but that's about it. For that matter you could call it C Script ;)

The Client Side Scripting might be a better forum to post your question on, but please don't cross post. If this is a JavaScript question, please let me know and I will move it for you!

Give more info on the errors you are getting. What exactly isn't working and what, if any, are the javascript error messages?

# 5 Re: Searches, using javascript to post forms.
All that happens with that script is that the 2 pages pop up and a huge "page cannot be displayed" on both ;(

I'm thinking that because there are other variables normally submitted...

ie accountnumber etc that the resulting URL

yadayday?mobilenumber=#########

doesnt look right to the script on thier end.

I am probably completly wrong, but I cant seem to get this to work. What would the resulting string sent to the url be for this form?:

<form method="post" action="retailaccountresult" name="retailaccountsearchform" onSubmit="if (checkInput(document.retailaccountsearchform)==false) return false;">
<table width="90%" border="0">
<tr>
<td colspan="2" align="center" class="sectitle">VZServe Customer Database Search</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2" align="center" class="pdkred">No results found.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">Please enter either the wireless number <b>or</b> the account number to begin your search:</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="50%" align="right">Wireless Number </td>
<td width="*" align="left"><input type="text" name="mobileNumber" size="10" maxlength="10" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="right">Account Number </td>
<td align="left"><input type="text" name="accountNumber" size="15" maxlength="15" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2" align="center"><input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit"/>
<input type="reset" name="Clear" value="Clear"/></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
-------------------

htp:// yadayada/retailaccountresult?mobileNumber=0000000&accountNumber=?

??

I have very limited knowledge of Javascript and CGI and server side scripting so I may be completly off base on what is going on.
