    actually, just change the function name to something other than accept(). javascript doesn't seem to like that word for some reason.

    actually, just change the function name to something other than accept(). javascript doesn't seem to like that word for some reason.

    i don't think that accept in the function name is a problem.. I have tested and outputed f.innerHTML instead of f.submit() and the alrt worked fine.. moreover, I have renamed the function to check_terms() and the same problem persists... any ideas?

    wait a minute... why do you have this in there?
    <input type="hidden" name="submit" value="1" />
    that is going to override the form's submit() method. get rid of it and it should work.

    oh... i guess you are right... it distorts the DOM, making <tt>submit</tt> an element rather than method.. lol... thanks
