Is it possible to submit a form on load without the user having to press a button??

I need to do this for my "confirm membership" page, the user clicks a link in their email which takes them to the page with the form which then needs to update a table, but i want to do it automatically.

thanks

Download Massimo's extension for UD called "FormManager". After inserting go to Code View and copy the OnSubmit part from the form-tag to the body-tag and change OnSubmit to OnLoad.

can't u just create a function to submit the form in javascript and then call it in the opening body tag?I'm not big on Jscript as u know already <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle> but something along the lines of

&lt;script language="javascript"&gt;
function MyFormSubmit() {
document.form.submit
}

// I don't know proper JS syntax, so forgive any errors

&lt;body onload="MyFormSubmit()"&gt;....&lt;/body&gt;

// Might be a load of junk, but any input is better than none <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>
