Even though your question has to do with Javascript and this is an HTML
group, here's something that might help you.

Get rid of the onsubmit parameter on the form.

Use it on the button itself, like this:

<input type="button" onclick="validateform()" name="save" id="save"
value="save">

Now inside the function itself, if the form is set to be submitted, do this
just before the return true line:

document.abc.submit();


Hope this helps.
Steve.
