Is there any way that I can use javascript to alter the target and action of a form, like document.form.target='this_window' and document.form.action='thepage.htm'?
 
or have i just answered my own question?

I went looking again and found a list of properties, but what i found said that only form.action was read/write... is that true? or are the writers of that site full of it?

Sorry don't quite understand,

document.form.action

Should work fine as a read and write.  EG reading the value:

var myVar = document.form.action;
(possibly document.form.action.value;)

And write would be:

document.form.action = 'new.asp';

Hope this helps.

i found something that suggested that while action could  be changed using document.form.action = 'thepage.asp', the target could only be read, not written.
 
Is it true that target is a read-only property as far as js is concerned, or do you still call it as document.form.target = 'New_window'?
