RE: [WEB400] Form Fields

Yes this is what I have added in the past and what I am adding to my current
program.  I was just wondering if I was missing out on something.

Because the HTML is being created using different components and each
component could have their own <form>.

Thanks for your help,

Right. Works as designed.

When changes by the user are of no interest, you can use hidden fields in
the submitted form.

So you do have hidden fields already and fill them with the contents on the
other form onsubmit()? So you are interested in the values...

Why isn't it possible to code a single form with all the fields you need?
