CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi all..

I'm a user of CMSMS v.1.5.3 with Formbuilder v.0.5.11 installed.

I can't get W3C to validate with my contact form - it's the default contact-form installed.
The html goes like this:


etc...

You can't use numbers or special characters in Id's classes etc.
How can I change it?
I've tried to alter the template, but i'm not that much of a pro regarding the codes in templates.
I can't seem to find a solution.

Maybe if anybody would be so kind to show me a clear w3c valid template, or help me on my way?

Thanks in advance


- Martin

Ps. Sorry for any misspelled words and such - I'm Danish.

If any questions - please ask.
I need this to be w3c valid, so if anyone knows about this, please help


Best regards
Martin

Come on people, share your information please

I don't think your suppose to ever get name="m3fbrp__11[]"  I never get [] in anything... and same with the id... id="11_2"  never get that either...

here is an example



from this test page...

you may need to re-setup your form or do a reinstall of the mod....

Hope this helps

Cheers

Yes you can get that name because it's a bug
See http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/bug/view/3058 for a solution

I think it's updated in last SVN version.

/Coldman

I see why I never get it... 

Dude(s) - Thank you!

I've searched the entire Internet for a solution... Well almost I see.
Now my biggest problem is how to get my girlfriend to recognise me, after all that time on the Internet

A billion thanks !

Time has passed now, and finaly I got time to dig into the provided links.
For me it seems there's not yet any solution..

I wonder why some get these errors, and some don't ?

I'm using CMSMS Version 1.6.3 and am getting the same error plus an invalid instead of for captcha input tags:

---------------------------------------------
#  Error  Line 165, Column 163: character "[" is not allowed in the value of attribute "id"

…="mf085ffbrp__3[]" id="mf085ffbrp__3[]" value="" size="25" maxlength="128" />

It is possible that you violated the naming convention for this attribute. For example, id and name attributes must begin with a letter, not a digit.

---------------------------------------------
# Error Line 191, Column 94: end tag for "input" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified

…="3313212313132311231233231312312…

You may have neglected to close an element, or perhaps you meant to "self-close" an element, that is, ending it with "/>" instead of ">".
---------------------------------------------

Here is a default install with one CMSMS 1.6.5 and the lastest formbuilder...

http://98.129.105.20/Travel-Tools/free- ... guide.html

if you go to the validator

http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http% ... guide.html

you'll see it passes just fine...


if you look to the code you'll see it also has


 Scenic Byways & Drives

in there...
