How to submit a SmartClient DynamicForm programmatically?

Question

I am trying to create a hidden form with some data, which needs to be submitted to a jsp page (which gets open in a new window), but all this would happen programatically, without user pressing submit button.

My Sample code

var fsquery = "abcd";
var emailId = "as@gmail.com";
var portalPsswd = "password";
var projectId = "123";
var kbUrl = "some url which will consume form post parameters";
var pv="1.2",pn="ADA";

this.kbform=isc.DynamicForm.create({
width: 300,
fields: [
{type: "hiddenitem", name: "EMAIL_ID", defaultValue:emailId },
{type: "hiddenitem", name: "PORTAL_PASSWORD", defaultValue:portalPsswd},
{type: "hiddenitem", name: "PROJECT_ID", defaultValue:projectId},
{type: "hiddenitem", name: "FSQUERY", defaultValue:fsquery},
{type: "hiddenitem", name: "PRODUCT_VERSION", defaultValue:pv},
{type: "hiddenitem", name: "PRODUCT_NAME", defaultValue:pn},
{type: "hiddenitem", name: "ORIGIN", defaultValue:"Administrator"},
{type: "submit", name: "submit", defaultValue: "submit"}
],
action: kbUrl,
target: "_blank",
method: "POST",
canSubmit: true
});

this.kbform.submit();

the last statement does not submit the form automatically, but if I click the submit button provided, it works perfectly as needed.

Please provide me a solution which will help me simulate "submit" type button functionality to submit the form.

You can try this sample code here under "text.js" tab

I'm not sure about this, but have you tried triggering the submit on a window.onload event? I don't think the form is available until the document is fully loaded. I'm sorry I don't have any examples.
