You need to specify a frame  a target otherwise your script will vanish on first submit   Change document myForm with document forms  myForm      lt form name  myForm  id  myForm  target   myFrame  action  test php  method  POST  gt       lt p gt           lt input name  test  value  test    gt       lt  p gt       lt p gt           lt input type  submit  value  Submit    gt       lt  p gt   lt  form gt    lt script type  text javascript  gt      window onload function            var auto   setTimeout function    autoRefresh       100            function submitform              alert  test              document forms  myForm   submit                       function autoRefresh               clearTimeout auto              auto   setTimeout function    submitform    autoRefresh       10000                    lt  script gt
