submit() error

[Xerxes]

Hi,
I am trying to submit a form when a non-submit button is clicked!
I have:
<input name="add_dev" type="button" value="Add Device" onClick="
this.form.action='<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>';
this.form.submit();">

When I run it, it says:
this.form.submit is not a function.

(I tired document.form_name.submit(), same thing).

I already have a "submit" button that submits the form to the file
specified in "Action".

Thanks for your help.

Why not just have 2 submit buttons?
