[jQuery] Re: Submitting a form with .submit() problems

[Alex Kachayev]

If I undestood the task right, you can create code in such way.

You form will be like this:

tabletr
form action=http://jquery.com; method=post id=myForm
td
input value=submit type=submit onclick=conversion(1000, this);
 /
/td
/form
/tr
/table

Convertion(1000, this) will return:

true, if it`s neccesary to submit form.
false, in other case.

For this question: 'Is there  another way to get to the form tag by
traversing elements in reverse order? '.. But parents('form')
returns reverse order...

Actually in this case parents('form') of the clicked object does not
include the form tag itself and I believe it's due to the poor html
structure. I just tested this out.

It's tough to script on back markup.  Different browsers will do
different things in an attempt to figure out what you really meant.
You can always get to the parent form of an input by accessing the
input's 'form' property.

var form = inputDomElement.form;
