Re: Form's : making me sick!

> I just want to know how to make a <form> inside a <form> get to respond or > dont make any browser errors? This is prohibited by either SGML DTDs if HTML 4.01(http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#h-17.3): <!ELEMENT FORM - - (%block;|SCRIPT)+ -(FORM) -- interactive form --> and XML DTDs of XHTML 1.0 (http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/#prohibitions) "form cannot contain other form elements." So, it is a good reason why browsers don't like it. Respect to your original problem, value of element <select> can be changed by JavaScript without submitting the whole form. Here is a little example (this behaves like a combobox ,common input + select with history list): <input type="text" name="combo_input" style="width:5em" onKeypress="combo_select.value=''; return true;"><br> <select name="combo_select" style="width:5em" tabindex=-1 onChange="combo_input.value=combo_select.value; return true;" onFocus="this.blur; return true;"> <option value="one">one</option> <option value="two">two</option> <option value="three">three</option> </select> ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steve Maroney" <steve@stevenet.dhs.org> To: "George Pitcher" <fmdev@yahoo.co.uk> Cc: "De Necker Henri" <deNeckerH@ford.co.za>; "PHP-General (E-mail)" <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Saturday, November 17, 2001 8:18 PM Subject: Re: [PHP] Form's : making me sick! > Thats sounds right becasuse anything between <form> ... </form> can only > will be passeed only to one script. > > Steve > > On Tue, 13 Nov 2001, George Pitcher wrote: > > > I don't think that you can nest forms. > > > > George > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > From: "De Necker Henri" <deNeckerH@ford.co.za> > > To: "PHP-General (E-mail)" <php-general@lists.php.net> > > Sent: Tuesday, November 13, 2001 1:09 PM > > Subject: [PHP] Form's : making me sick! > > > > > > > I just want to know how to make a <form> inside a <form> get to respond > > > or > > > dont make any browser errors? > > > > > > It looks someting like this : > > > > > > <form> > > > <input type = "text"> > > > <input type = "text"> > > > <form> > > > <select onchange = "this.form.submit();"> //This must > > > change the next <select> values ! > > > </select> > > > </form> > > > <select> > > > //this values must be cahnge > > > </select> > > > </form> > > > > > > Everthing is working fine but i just cant get the two forms to work > > > together.If i only can get some ideas on what action,or onchange values to > > > change it will be greatfull! > > > > > > > > > -- > > > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > > > For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net > > > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net > > > > > > _________________________________________________________ > > Do You Yahoo!? > > Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com > > > > > > -- > > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > > For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net > > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net > > > > > > > > > > > > > Thank you, > Steve Maroney > > > > > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net >
