ok, I think you are right in some way:

In a very easy example (also with some javascript in it) it runs well -=20
clicklink and performing setinputfield and clickbutton

<html>
<head>
<TITLE>XX</TITLE>
<script type=3D"text/javascript" language=3D"Javascript1.1">=20

    function validate(form) {=20
    if (form.mytext.value=3D=3D'') {
        alert("fill it, please");
        return false;
    }
    else  {
      return true;=20
    }=20
   }=20
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form action=3D"./log4j.jsp" name=3D"myform"
        onsubmit=3D"return validate(document.myform);">
        <INPUT type=3D"text" name=3D"mytext" value=3D"" />
        <INPUT type=3D"submit" value=3D"mybutton" /></form>
<p><a href=3D"./menus.jsp">mylink</a></p>
</body>
</html>

We are using some very complex javacript-validations berfore submitting a=20
form (you know Struts?).
But I am sure, the javascript-code does not cancel the submit.
I tried the complex example with submit-cancelling input - and the submit=20
is not performed.

so I think:

easy submits and links run well, complex javascript cancels the request.

the two fixes are able to deal with complex javascript ....

am I right???
