document.mapserv.submit(); problems in javascript

[Umberto Nicoletti]

document.rv is used in js to access a form called mapserv.

Pay attention NOT to have another document element called mapserv or
whose id is mapserv. The browser dunnows which one to pick and will
return undef.

This has bitten me in the past too...
