@LiLcRaZyFuZzYDec 06.2004 — well, u can do it, i think it is indeed illegal (non-valid) html.

putting it in a table is equivalent. so u should try to do it in a div tag (<div></div>)

how did u validate it?

paul, well, then i was wrong, but anyway, i div is a good idea. isnt it?plus, i dont think a form is tabular data of any kind, so even if it is validated by the w3c,shouldnt it be avoided?

pelegk1, do u absolutely need it to be in a table row?

@pelegk1authorDec 06.2004 — but in that case

how do i build in a col a <FORM>?

@LiLcRaZyFuZzYDec 06.2004 — well correct me if im wrong, but i understood u wanted to put a <form></form> in a <table></table>

so it would be
[CODE]
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<form></form>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
[/CODE]

or what do u mean?

what i meant with the <div> is simply
[CODE]
<div>
<form></form>
</div>
[/CODE]

@LiLcRaZyFuZzYDec 07.2004 — plus with a xhtml doctype, you will need divs enclosing all your forms elements(input, textarea, buttons) in order to make it validate, if i remember well, thats was a problem i once had

You need a block-level element enclosing all your form controls. You could use a [font=courier]DIV[/font], or the [font=courier]FIELDSET[/font]/[font=courier]LEGEND[/font] elements. ?
