What is the deal lately with so many STers being unable to typ -- nm - con_carne Sep 8, 09:12 13

  - how do you do that? - prayformojo Sep 8, 09:14 10
    - The type of the submit button is "submit", if you change it to "button", I think it makes the form not submit until the user clicks the button. - Beryllium Sep 8, 09:16 9
      - sort of , you need to add an event handler script to know what todo when the button is pushed. (I do this with all my pages) -- nm - decline Sep 8, 09:19 1
        
        thanks guys! -- nm - prayformojo Sep 8, 09:32
      - Can you make it that the button has a box in which you have to enter a security code before you press it? - The Ruiner Sep 8, 09:19 3

        I know, it's annoying as hell :) -- nm - Beryllium Sep 8, 09:18 1

    - that's a lot of soup. -- nm - znufrii, Q-Lister Sep 8, 09:31 1
      - rationale: I bus to work. there's nowhere in the park to eat. soup keeps forever, so I can keep a variety here. - HPV McGee Sep 8, 09:39

    - measurement mic with a spectral analyzer will do it, but you have to be smart about interpreting what you see. - colin Sep 8, 09:17 2
