I have developed a module that is basically a simple data capture form. As I need the form to work with JavaScript disabled, to submit the form I use a simple button. With JavaScript enabled, the form submits beautifully. With it disabled, upon pressing the button, I get the following exception: Can anyone help? Should I be able to use a submit button in this way? Please help!

Are you using a form submit button? Try just just using a link and see if that works.

Hi Joseph

Thanks for the response. I am using an html input of type submit, yes. When you say a link, do you mean an anchor with the href set to the same url as the page? If so, this does not work.

Any other ideas?

Thanks,
Stuart

Using a form submit button won't work. If you use an ASP:button control that will work as clicking the button will call a method that you can control.

I don't have a lot of experience using DotNetNuke in situations where javascript is disabled, but I would think that you'll have lots of other problems in that case, as many other parts of the site won't work.

Hi

I used an ASP:button control originally and that produced exactly the same error with JS disabled, hence trying the submit button.

I think you're right, DNN doesn't really cater for people with JavaScript turned off. I'm sure this should be able to work though.

Please let me know if you have any other thoughts!
