Re: Multiple Forms...
Hi Jason --
Multiple, embedded forms like you've described definately blow up on almost
all browsers. In Minivend, the work-around is to have one form, then set
the appropriate name/value pairs in a [set][/set], and use mv_click to
determine the parameters. This works unless the user does something funky
with forward/back buttons - in which case Minibend can become confused.
The only other way to do what you want (that I am aware of) is to use
JavaScript and buttons with a custom "onclick" handler that submits the
appropriate form. Of course, this opens another can of worms entirely.
