1. read the the struts developer documentation; it contains everything
you need to develop valid struts code!

2. read (and understand) the error messages struts gives you; the
error message above tells you that the form tag has no name attribute
and that's correct (goto 1.). But that has nothing to do with
javascript.

3. DON'T use javascript to validate your struts form. Use struts
validation instead! (goto 1.)

4. if you absolutely want to use javascript to validate your form data
then the onsubmit attribute is correct. (goto 1.)
