Re: [Edbrowse-dev] <table> <form>

Hi Karl, Chris,

Yes, still casually follow the list, but do
not always find time to run a test... unless
you poke me, like now ;=))

And yes, tidy will see that as invalid html!

With an error even, so no output unless forced,
but IIRC you do add force-output...

But even if you do that, tidy will close the
form, move the script out of the table, and
thus the submit line no longer has an
associated form action...

In reading around, like here -
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5967564/form-inside-a-table
where it says -
"You can have an entire table inside a form. You can have
a form inside a table cell. You cannot have part of a table
inside a form."

But I suppose none of this helps you have a
valid 'submit' button...

Yes, you could file a tidy issue, but not quite
sure what you would expect tidy to do in such a
case? But open to ideas...

Regards, Geoff.

PS: Been so long, seems I have even forgotten the
email and pwd I used for the list, so will add
direct cc to you both...  Maybe you could remind me...
