Submit Button

[snike]

How can i make a submit button that changes text when u click it.

Example: It says Submit Before upload .
When you click it..it says "Please wait for upload"

You could use javascript to do that probably with an onclick action I would think.

<input name="upload" type="submit" value="Upload!" onclick="this.value='Please Wait...';this.disabled=true;" />

Perfect Jim!

The code does not work. Well it does but when I click Submit it it says Please Wait and does nothing at all....

<input name="upload" type="submit" value="Upload!" onclick="this.value='Please Wait...';this.disabled=true;" />

^^^That is the code^^^^^

Should still work. :\

Try this.
Make your <form> tag look like this:

<form action="whatever" name="test" method="post">

and have the button's code be this:

<input name="upload" type="submit" value="Upload!" onclick="this.value='Please Wait...';this.disabled=true;document.test.submit();" />

I have the same issue with Opera. It works with Netscape.
However if I remove
this.disabled=true;
it's OK.
I assume the form may not be submitted because the submit button has just been disabled
