    Actinic messing up my forms?

    Hi there,
    In my act_primary.html i have two forms, one in my sidebar for signing up to my newsletter and one to be positioned under every product allowing people to sign up to my newsletter.
    For some reason, the form on the sidebar works fine. But the form in the middle wont work! When someone presses submit it takes them to http://www.zuccionline.com/cgi-bin/ca000000.pl which I presume is an actinic generate cgi file?
    If anyone has experienced this problem before or can help me I'd really appreciate it!!

    An example of both forms can be found here: http://www.zuccionline.com/acatalog/CYRILL-BROWN.html

    The problem is that you've ended up with nested forms. HTML doesn't permit this.

    Actinic uses a form for the product page and you've inserted a form into this.

    The result is:

    <form>...<form>......</form></form> which I believe is illegal HTML coding. When you press submit, you're actually submitting Actinics form using values that it doesn't understand.

    The form in the side bar is fine as this isn't nested.

    To solve this you'd need to move your form outside of Actinics product form.

    Hope this helps.
