The search form is a submission form which passes parameters to a results list. Both are embedded in the same web page.
When the web page loads I'd like the search form to auto-submit based on some default values, so that a list of results is generated. Otherwise it just shows "No records found" until the user submits the form.
I see Caspio provided an auto-submit javascript solution below. However, since the submission form reloads after each search, the below creates an infinite loop.
Does anyone have a simple solution so that the search form auto-submits ONLY when the user first visits the web page?
