Question

I’ve been using jquery 1.6 with no problem. Today I switched to jquery 1.8 and suddenly I am getting this error when trying to submit a form:

TypeError: e[h] is not a function.

Form:

<form method="post" action="login?login" name="login" id="login">
<input class="input" type="text" name="user_mail" id="user_mail" autocomplete="on" />
<input class="input" type="password" name="password" id="password" autocomplete="off" />
<a class="green_button" href="javascript:void(0)" id="login_button">Login</a>
<input type="submit" name="login" id="submit" style="visibility:hidden" />
</form>
<script language="javascript">
$("#login_button").click(function(){
    $("#login").submit();   
});
</script>

Am I missing something?

Thanks!

Remove the line below.

<input type="submit" name="login" id="submit" style="visibility:hidden" />

Update:

Or if you have to use the submit input, then you need to change the id submit to something else. The reason is that if you have an input element with id of submit, it will set a submit property to the form with the HTMLInputElement. So you could not call the .submit method on the HTMLFormElement.
