X-Cart forums

I found the following code in XLite\class\view\form\Aform.php:

/**
* javascript: this value will be returned on form submit
* NOTE - this function designed for AJAX easy switch on/off
*
* @return string
*/
protected function getOnSubmitResult()
{
return 'true';
}

/**
* javascript: default action performed on form submit
*
* @return string
*/
protected function getJSOnSubmitCode()
{
return 'return ' . $this->getOnSubmitResult() . ';';
}

What I cant seem to find is the function getJSOnSubmitCode, I would like to know what this code does and where I can find it.
Obviously it relates to the xcart forms and it does something once you submit a form. I am about to create a custom form module for our site, but before I do I would like to know what this code does and where I can find it, so I can determine if I should leave it in my custom form module.

Thanks in advance

Here is where the code goes into: skins/admin/modules/XC/CanadaPost/form/start.twig:

<form action="{{ this.getFormAction() }}"
  method="{{ this.getParam('formMethod') }}"
  accept-charset="utf-8"
  onsubmit="javascript: {{ this.getJSOnSubmitCode() }}"
  {% if this.getParam('className') %} class="{{ this.getClassName() }}"{% endif %}
  {% if this.isMultipart() %} enctype="multipart/form-data"{% endif %}
  {% if this.getParam('attributeTarget') %} target="{{ this.getParam('attributeTarget') }}"{% endif %}>
<fieldset>
  {% for paramName, paramValue in this.getFormParams() %}
    <input type="hidden" name="{{ paramName }}" value="{{ paramValue }}" />
  {% endfor %}
</fieldset>

And here: skins/customer/form/start_order_search.twig:

<form action="{{ this.getFormAction() }}"
  method="{{ this.getParam('formMethod') }}"
  accept-charset="utf-8"
  onsubmit="javascript: {{ this.getJSOnSubmitCode() }}"
  class="search-orders"
  style="display: none;">
<div class="form-params" style="display: none;">
  {% for paramName, paramValue in this.getFormParams() %}
    <input type="hidden" name="{{ paramName }}" value="{{ paramValue }}" />
  {% endfor %}
</div>

There are no other templates that use the method directly, but, as far as I see, the "onsubmit" attribute is added to other forms in a similar way automatically.
