You flooding the list? Haha, I guess we all love when you post
something. :-) I'm ashamed, because I flood the list all the time (you
all: talk more, and I'll be quiet, I promise :-P).

Yes, '_submit' seems ok and the underscore is not common to see in
javascript. It seems ok for me.

After the Mary Poppins word, I thought I could share my first idea:

<input type="submit" name="wenda_twas_mona_kona_keamvo" value="submit" />

"Wenda twas mona kona keamvo" means "Carry me across the river" in an
african language, and translates very well what a submit button does -
"Carry my data across this form". It may be difficult to remember but
in many editors you can create macros to insert the name, so this
would not be a problem. Yes, it's a joke. duh.
