Attempting form.submit() causes ReferenceError, "__submit__" is not defined.

Reported by Mark A. Ziesemer | June 9th, 2010 @ 06:36 AM

Apparently form.submit() is not (fully) implemented.

Minimal test case:

document.createElement("form").submit();

org.mozilla.javascript.EcmaError: ReferenceError: "__submit__" is not defined. (env.rhino.1.2.js#12414)

I very well may not be doing something correctly, but I couldn't find any other Envjs examples for submitting a form, and this looks simple enough. I understand that this is not a complete example, as there is no action or method defined, but this isn't impacting the result.

    I am seeing this error as well.

    It looks to me like there is a bug. I looked at env.rhino.1.2.js.

    I see that there is a local variable submit created within an anonymous block and used in the definition of HTMLFormElement.prototype.submit for html.1.2.13. submit would not be visible outside of that anonymous function.

    6473: * Envjs html.1.2.13
    6479://CLOSURE_START
    7263:var submit = function(element){
    8722: var event = submit(this);
    10761://CLOSURE_END

    Later on in xhr.1.2.13 HTMLFormElement.prototype.submit is reset and submit is used again, but it is not visible.
