Thanks Rob I'll have a look into bubbling - do I cancel bubbling on the li click event or button click event?
Some of the validation errors are because I simplified the html code for the purpose of this discussion but missed some tags. I wasn't aware of a form not being valid in a span so thanks for that, not sure what you mean by an input not allowed to be a child of a form though?? Thanks again.
