Is there a reason you literally simulate a click event on the form instead of calling submit() on it?

- Mystery-Machine 1y ago`requestSubmit()`* https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLFormElement/requestSubmit https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLFormEle...
- rorylaitila 1y agoYeah, it's escaping me at the moment all of the reasons, but calling .submit() on a form element doesn't exactly have all of the behaviors as calling .click() on a button element in a form, particularly multiple buttons in a form.
- hapidjus 1y agoAre you perhaps using the button name/value for something? Havent tested but i suspect that submit() does not pass that right?
- rorylaitila 1y agoYep that's one reason. I make heavy use of that.
