I wish to create an ajax button that is outside the <form> ... </form> 
created by SQLFORM.factory, such that when I click the ajax button it will 
self-submit the form. Is this possible?

For instance

def  mytest():
   form=SQLFORM.factory(Field("mytext","text", requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY()))
   # add some form.element stuff to remove the submit button or make a 
custom form in the view, sans the submit button
   if form.process().accepted:
       # do stuff with form.vars.mytext or some such
   else:
       # blah blah
   return dict(form=form)


# but in my view there is
{{=form}}
{{# some more stuff}}
{{# finally the button that does the magic of submitting the form}}
{{= TAG.BUTTON("click me", _onclick="ajax something or other")}}
 

such that the "click me" button submits the form. What does the onclick 
function look like such that it submits the form as if the original form 
submit button was working its usual magic?
