When using the **submit=** call in a plugin and you're passing values to the web form, do you use the web form field's **name=** or **id=** portion?

**Web form fields**

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

**Plug-in Code**

values=dict(successRedirect = "[https://secure.mlb.c...wizard&c\_id=mlb](https://secure.mlb.com/enterworkflow.do?flowId=registration.ajax.wizard&c_id=mlb "External link")",  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; emailAddress = Prefs['mlb\_user'],  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; password = Prefs['mlb\_pass'],  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; submit="Login"  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; )

It's the **name** you want.
