Hello,

I have a couple of forms in I-frames inside static html.
They work fine with IE, Firefox, but not with Opera (someone told me they had problems with IE as well, but not confirmed).
Basically, you press the Submit button and nothing happens.
Here's a link to one of these forms:

Can you see any reason for this to happen?

Pierre

Hi Pierre,

Do you have the JavaScript Validation enabled for any fields ?

Cheers

Max

Yes it's enabled for a few.

Hi again...
Still waiting for more explanations!

Hi Pierre,

Sorry, I just had another look at your page. The source is so complex that I'm don't even begin to know where to start looking - and I have no debugger for IE or Opera.

I'd suggest that you construct a simpler page. If you want to debug this one then strip it down to the basics and rebuild item by item until you find what's causing the problem.

Hi Bob,

The second one (contact) is pretty simple and has the same problem. Maybe it's the fact that the form is residing inside an Iframe?

Here's the form code:


<form name="contact_general" method="post" action="">

<div style="height:40px; margin-top:5px">
<font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">
<input name="name" type="text" style="width:250px" maxlength="50">
</font></div>

<div style="height:40px; margin-top:5px">
<font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">
<input name="courriel" type="text" style="width:250px" maxlength="100">
</font></div>

<div style="height:40px; margin-top:5px">
<font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">
<input name="subject" type="text" style="width:250px" maxlength="50">
</font></div>

<div style="height:170px; margin-top:5px">
<font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">
<textarea name="content" rows="11" maxlength="1000" style="width:250px; font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:11px"></textarea>
</font></div>

<div style="height:40px; margin-top:5px">
<font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><br>
<input name="submit" type="submit" value="Submit">
</font></div>

</form><br><br>Post edited by: payotte, at: 2008/01/19 03:05

Hi Pierre,

True, but if you look at the page source you'll see that there isn't just the form code but a whole stack of javascript, html and css that's being loaded in the iFrame. Any of those could cause the browser to hiccup.
