My form works fine in Firefox and Opera. The submit button doesn't work in Internet Explorer. I'm not using Javascript. I can't figure it out.

FORM HTML

Doesn't the submit button need to be within the <form> tag?

You have your </form> tag after the first input box (Name).

You are correct, i deleted that tag but it's still not working.

Hi,

You have a duplicated </select> tag but that shouldn't cause a problem. More seriously there are no attributes in the <form> tag so there's nothing for the form to do. It should look something like this from the Contact page here

<form name="ChronoContact_contactreal" 
method="post"
action="index.php?option=com_chronocontact&task=send&chronoformname=contactreal" >

Or, if you are using this code pasted into ChronoContact then you should not have the <form> or </form> tags in there as ChronoContact adds them again and you end up with nested <form> tags.

Bob

PS Just checked the link and you do have nested tags at lines 168 and 202 on the page source.<br><br>Post edited by: GreyHead, at: 2007/06/14 01:02

Thank you. I fixed removed the form tags since the code is pasted into chronoforms. I also removed the </select> tag and STILL NOT working.

Still works fine in Firefox and Opera though...

Hi,

Please remove any form tags inside your code so any <form or /form> MUST be removed then everything should be fine!!!

Did you try ChronoMyAdmin for managing your Joomla database tables ?

i removed all form tags.

Now it "clicks" on submit in Internet Explorer, but it just returns to the page without sending information. Firefox and Opera work fine.
