HTML Parameters to document.form.submit()

I have a submit similar to this <input type="submit" class="asdf"....
How can I use the "class=""" with javascript's document.form.submit() or do I have to use some other trick?

Why don't you just use the name or id?

What name? What id?

I now know that I need the "name=""" attribute included with it.

And I do type "document.myformname.submit()" not "document.form.submit()".

you want submit your form from jscript code?
then you don't need class property!(and you can't use it for submit method)
class is a UI property for HTML elements.

Well, you can, but it's easier to use the id or form name.

yes I know it! for submiting a form should use ID of form but no class property
class property say which class of styles (style tag or CSS file) should apply on element. when I don't understand why(and what) you use class property in submit method

Mr/Mrs commodore you can submit your form by a code like this:

document.FormName.ElementID.value = 'ElementValue';

//.. and for other form elements

document.FormName.method = 'Method Type';

document.FormName.action = 'Action Target';

document.FormName.submit(); //this method gives no parametere
