Is it possible on PageLoad in JavaScript to automatically submit the form as if the user clicked the Submit Button?
------------------------------

<FORM name="dateRange" action="adlist.aspx" method="post">
<TABLE cellSpacing="0" cellPadding="0" width="100%" border="0">
<TR bgColor="#c0c0c0">
<TD class="copy">From <INPUT class="normal" id="FromDate" type="text" size="10" name="FromDate"><A href="javascript:cal1.popup();"><IMG alt="Popup Calendar Control" src="/dnfimages/calendar.gif" border="0"></A>
  To <INPUT class="normal" id="ToDate" type="text" size="10" name="ToDate"><A href="javascript:cal2.popup();"><IMG alt="Popup Calendar Control" src="/dnfimages/calendar.gif" border="0"></A>
   <INPUT class="submit" id="SUBMIT1" type="submit" value="Show" valign="left">
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
</FORM>

I think you could do:

Haven't tried it though.

That works but it keeps loading the page over and over again. I tried adding this but it still keeps loading the page over and over again.

Any ideas?

The form is posting to itself? If so, it will keep refreshing the page as you are resubmitting the form every page load.

You should be able to set a cookie to keep track of what page load you are on, though.

Depending on what you're trying to achieve, you may need to use an (invisible) IFRAME and specify it as the target of the form.
