*If* I understand you, you want to have something like...

[form1]
[field1]
[field2]
[end_form1]
[form2]
[field3]
[submit]
[end_form2]

...and have the submit button submit both form1 and form2?

That''s not something regulation HTML is capable of*. Is there a reason
you
can''t you just combine the forms?


* You /could/, *technically*, do this in JavaScript with onsubmit(), but
it''s error-prone and - at best - only works with JavaScript-enabled
browsers.

Well they cross paths when i render a partial but when they are 
currently on the same page they have the following code:

<b>Leave a Reply</b>
<%= form_tag :action => "comment", :id => @post %>
<%= render :partial => ''commentform'' %>
<p id=commentindent><%= submit_tag "Comment!" %></p>

and

<%= form_tag :action => ''search'' %>
  <p align =center><%= text_field_tag ''search'' ,
params[:search], "size"
=>"20" %>
  <%= submit_tag ''Search''  %></p>
<%= end_form_tag %>

The 1st form Leave a reply gets called regardless of which submit button 
i click.

There''s no end_form_tag after the first form ?

Where''s your end_form_tag for the first form?
