I have an HTML form defined as <form name=writeYourAd id=writeYourAd method=post action=post.php?action=preview onsubmit=return checkContentForm(this);

I have an HTML form defined as

<form name="writeYourAd" id="writeYourAd" method="post" action="post.php?action=preview" onsubmit="return checkContentForm(this);" enctype="multipart/form-data">

If I use a , it works fine. But if instead I use this:

<a href="#" class="mmh_orngebtn mmh_grybtn" onclick="javascript:document.writeYourAd.submit();"><span>continue</span></a>

It submits the form but does not run the checkContentForm function (or at least it lets me through anyways).

Why? What can I do?

    I think that you need to point the onclick handler to your checkContentForm function.

    Or write your own submit function that includes calling checkContentForm and then submits.
