Description

Submitting a form with a SubmitLink doesn't work in Google Chrome because of the JavaScript error "ff.onsubmit is not a function".

The generated html is like

<form id="memberGetMemberForm" class="standard_form" role="form" wicketpath="memberGetMemberForm" method="post" action="./?-1.IFormSubmitListener-memberGetMemberForm"><div style="width:0px;height:0px;position:absolute;left:-100px;top:-100px;overflow:hidden"><input type="hidden" name="memberGetMemberForm_hf_0" id="memberGetMemberForm_hf_0" /></div>
    ...
<a href="javascript:;" id="mgmSend" wicketpath="memberGetMemberForm_mgmSend" onclick="var e=document.getElementById('memberGetMemberForm_hf_0'); e.name='mgmSend'; e.value='x';var f=document.getElementById('memberGetMemberForm');var ff=f;if (ff.onsubmit != undefined) { if (ff.onsubmit()==false) return false; }f.submit();e.value='';e.name='';return false;"> </a>
   ...
</form>

Error in Chrome console:
