Hi guys, it''s me again ;)
is it possible to put forms into forms? My problem is, i have a form
which gathers informations about an SSL Certificate order. There is a
field which holds the SSL CSR file. Now i wanted to put in a subform
which has an form_remote_tag and decodes that CSR file and returns if
everything was okay or not.
Now if i put in a submit_tag it submits my form which holds the ssl cert
order instead of the subform which should only check for the correctness
of the CSR :)
I mean in PHP i''d assign the form a ''name'' or
''id'' and then do
javascript: document.getElementByID(''subform'').submit() but
that won''t
work in rails since i can''t assign a name or id to a form :/
Any ideas for this? Thanks in advance

There''s no reason to nest the forms. Make them seperate and you should have no problems. If that won''t work, don''t use form_remote_tag. You''d have to make your own semi-form using Prototype that "submits" the file field when you click a button. Overall, it''d wouldn''t be pretty. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Html forms may not be nested. If you''re using form_tag, it''s second arg is a hash of attributes to add to the form tag. So, you can give it a name or an id attribute just fine (though the name attribute is deprecated in xhtml). b Franz Bettag wrote:> Hi guys, it''s me again ;) > > is it possible to put forms into forms?
