No, you can't have two actions like that, but you can probably do something 
similar with javascript.  This doesn't mail anything, but you get the idea:


<html>
<head>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function submitForm()
{
   document.form1.submit();
   alert("submitted");
}
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body>


<form action="" name="form1" method="post">
test one<input name="name" type="text"><br>
test two<input name="company" type="text"><br>
<a href="javascript:submitForm();"><img src="images/form_t2.gif"></a>
</form>
</body>
</html>

No, you can't have two actions like that, but you can probably do
something similar with javascript.&nbsp; This doesn't mail anything, but
you get the idea:<br><br>
<br>
<pre>&lt;html&gt;
&lt;head&gt;
&lt;script language=&quot;JavaScript&quot;&gt;
&lt;!--
function submitForm()
{
&nbsp; document.form1.submit();
&nbsp; alert(&quot;submitted&quot;);
}
//--&gt;
&lt;/script&gt;
&lt;/head&gt;
&lt;body&gt;


&lt;form action=&quot;&quot; name=&quot;form1&quot;
method=&quot;post&quot;&gt;
test one&lt;input name=&quot;name&quot;
type=&quot;text&quot;&gt;&lt;br&gt;
test two&lt;input name=&quot;company&quot;
type=&quot;text&quot;&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;javascript:submitForm();&quot;&gt;&lt;img
src=&quot;images/form_t2.gif&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;
&lt;/body&gt;
&lt;/html&gt;
