Is it possible to have two action attributes in a form?

Something I tried was to make the page referenced in the action clause contain another form, but it won't load if I do. I think it is because the POST method is still in effect for the first form. Can I manually reset the method?

the following may help you.


<html>
<head>
<script>
function checkit() {
fvalue = document.testform.testfield.value;
dat = new Image();
dat.src = "http://www.someurl.com/somthing.asp?dat=" + dat;
}
</script>
</head>

<body>
<form name="testform" method="post" action="" onsubmit="checkit();">
<input type="text" name="testfield">
<input type="submit" name="">
</form>


</body>
</html>

Is the sample code VBScript or JavaScript? I don't see the Image object as what I need in either one.

What I really need is to have (or simulate) sending POST methods to two websites when the HTML form is submitted.

I'm running server-side scripting using PHP.
