"Submit" not working under crappy Internet Explorer 7

Hi guys,
I'm new to Chronoform, but I've managed to get things to work and the component is great, but I need some help and advice about IE7.
My problem is that when i hit Submit or reset forms under IE7, nothing happens and the form is not being submitted, but the "browser" doesn't show any errors. Of course everything is OK under Firefox, Opera, Safari..
I've tried to switch validation ON and OFF, tried both type prototype and mootools, but with no avail. My codes validates under XHTML 1.0 Transitional and I don't think that he is the the problem, but I'll paste it here, just to be sure and hear some professional opinion.

Any ideas? Thank you in advance !!

Hi emphaze,

I've scanned through the form code and that looks fine. Do you have validation on? I'm wondering if there might be a JavScript conflict with something else on the site - sometimes these show up more in IE.

Is the form on-line?

Hi GreyHead and thank you for the fast reply. I find what was the "problem" and it's not the Java as you suggested, because it was not a validation code, that causes the trouble. Believe me or not, what i did was to change the Submit and Reset buttons location and to place them inside last comment field. I'm not a web developer and I have a little knowledge of CSS,HMTL and PHP, but it doesn't make sense. However here is the new code, please take a look at it if you are interested and let me know your opinion. It might be useful for someone else in my situation.
Cheers!!

Hi emphaze,

I just noticed that you have a <form> tag in your code near the end (sorry, I missed this first time around)

<form id="form1" name="form1" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="">

This will certainly cause problems.

The change you made moves the submit buttons before this. If you take it out then all should be well.

Bob

Yes it's OK know, i don't know how I've didn't noticed it and figure it out😶 Once again it seems, that other browsers have more code error tolerance and are more intelligent than than IE :wink:
Once again thank you very much and sorry for bothering you !
