I have a real problem with this page. It simply refuses to perform a
postback, claiming that the form doesn't support submit().

I cannot figure out what it's complaining about. Please help me with
this one.

Server forms can only post to themselves, so I assume your page is named
ref_cmsimageedit.aspx?
If so, I suggest you try removing parts of your page temporarily to simplify
things and see if you can narrow down the problem to a specific line or code
block.

Found it! Whew!
For future reference: do not name any fields submit!

I had a custom control on the page that generated a button named
submit. It replaced the submit function and that in it's turn didn't
support "()".
