there's no body for the submit() function.
Do a little test adding this to one of your forms
<h:inputText value="#{BackingBean.value}" 
valueChangeListener="#{BackingBean.method}" onchange="submit()" />
Every time you change the value in the <h:inputText /> tag there's a 
submit that invokes the valueChangeListener's method
but it's different from a "real" form submit invoked by <h:commandButton 
/> tag
