Question

I want send a form as soon as the page is loaded. All variables in the form are written dynamically and there is no button for submitting.

Does following JS script work in all browsers ?

<script type='text/javascript'> window.onload = function(){ window.document.forms[0].submit(); }; </script>

I doubt window.onload will work in all without any problems.

Thanks in advance…

If you’re worried about compatibility in all browsers, how about using jQuery’s ready function?

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
  $(document).ready(function() {
    window.document.forms[0].submit();
  });
</script>
