Property 'submit' of object #<HTMLFormElement> is not a function
Check the form to see whether there is a HTMLInputElement with id or name is submit.
This will set a property submit to the HTMLFormElement, so the submit function which is in the prototype of the form element can't be executed.
Example:
<form class="form" id="form" action="/mailer.php" method="post"> <input type="button" name="submit" value="go"/></form>js:
console.log($("#form")[0].submit); // will be the button element, not the submit function.jQuery's .submit() method will call the .submit() on the original dom element, so the error will happen.
xdazz explained the issue well.
You can use a native submit method of HTMLFormElement to work around a problem:
HTMLFormElement.prototype.submit.call($('#form')[0]);
If you have a button or input with the name submit or id submit, I have seen errors in IE. Make sure your inputs are correctly named. Here's an article on it http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/1414
