Give the form an id  and then   document getElementById  yourFormId   submit     Best practice would probably be to give your link an id too  and get rid of the event handler   document getElementById  yourLinkId   onclick   function         document getElementById  yourFormId   submit

in my opinion the easiest way would be somthing like this    lt  php gt  echo   lt a href  link php submit    value    gt Submit lt  a gt     lt    gt    within the  link php  you can request the value like this     REQUEST  submit

This is an improve of  ComFreek ans    lt form id  myform  gt     lt  -- form elements -- gt     lt a href  javascript    onclick  document getElementById  myform   submit    gt Submit lt  a gt   lt  form gt    So the  will not trigger action and reload your page  Specially if your are developing with a framework with SPA

Try this code    lt form id  myform  gt     lt  -- form elements -- gt     lt a href     onclick  document getElementById  myform   submit    gt Submit lt  a gt   lt  form gt    But users with disabled JavaScript won t be able to submit the form  so you could add the following code    lt noscript gt     lt input type  submit  value  Submit form     gt   lt  noscript gt

Supposing the form is the direct parent you can do    lt a href     onclick  this parentNode submit    return false   gt submit lt  a gt    If not you can access through the forms name attribute like this    lt a href     onclick  document forms  myform   submit    return false   gt submit lt  a gt    See both examples here  http   jsfiddle net WEZDC 1
