>>>>>I recently changed a page to use an image instead of a submit button. Before, I was able to tab, tab, tab and space over the submit button to submit the form. Now, I have an image and the space over the image scroll down the page. How can I define the image to submit the form when I hit space when the focus is over it?

The onkeypress event should be of help then:
<SCRIPT Language=VBScript>
Sub myAnchorSelect()
	Dim sCode
	sCode = window.event.keycode
	If sCode=32 Then
		Alert "Space bar was pressed!"
	End If
End Sub

Sub myImgSelect()
	mySubmit.Click()
End Sub
</SCRIPT>

<A HREF="javascript:myImgSelect" onkeypress="javascript:myAnchorSelect()"> ..etc.
