The html:submit tag creates an input type of "submit" with a default name
of "submit". The problem is that this default name conflicts with the
Javascript function form.submit(). I entered a more lengthy note about
this at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=struts-user&m=98460389910114&w=2
There are a number of ways to hack around this problem including:
1) use an html:button instead
2) set the property for the html:submit tag to something other than
"submit".
I consider the behavior of html:submit to be a functional bug because the
default attributes don't work when you use the form.submit() Javascript
function. I would prefer that the html:submit tag create an input type with
a name other than "submit" to prevent this naming conflict.
