Auto Submit Marketo Form on Page Load

So, testing outside of Marketo, I learn that the code above works if there is no submit button code on the form. Not sure how you remove the button input from a Marketo form or work around it.

Definitely use Kenny's Forms 2.0 API method.  Don't treat Marketo forms like generic forms.

But also, if the form's Thank You logic reloads the same page, then you will trigger the logic again, which you definitely don't want.  Instead, you should either redirect to another page that doesn't auto-submit (based on query string or a totally different URL) or change the redirect logic to just stay put on the current page.

Couldn't this be more easily accomplished in a workflow?  Visits Web Page in the smart list and then some formalized change data value steps in the flow.

I have a similar use case, and from the resources above I think I've cracked most of it. But for some reason, the form is submitting multiple times before it redirects (up to 6 times!)

Here is the code. I've put this at the bottom of a Marketo guided landing page template:

<script>

MktoForms2.loadForm("//app-ab06.marketo.com", "110-AIL-152", 1417, function(form) {

    // From here we have access to the form object and can call its methods

  MktoForms2.whenReady(function (form) {

        form.submit();

   });

  //Add an onSuccess handler

    form.onSuccess(function(values, followUpUrl) {

        // Take the lead to a different page on successful submit, ignoring the form's configured followUpUrl

        location.href = "google.com";

        // Return false to prevent the submission handler continuing with its own processing

        return false;

       });

});

</script>

Maybe I don't need the custom redirect code in the second half - a bit unsure! Any guidance appreciated
