Re: [WSG] Form Validation error
Thanks all, this is really embarrassing! Question I asked in the last 4 days were the result of my carelessness. I hope it doesn't give an impression that I am here for quick answer without doing my homework. Regards, tee Remove that last slash at the end.

Re: [WSG] Form Validation error
Also, have anybody done the e-commerce site that is fully xhtml validated? Yep. Can I see the site Please? I find it too much a challenge! It's quite interesting to do so. Only if deadline is not due :( tee ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **
Re: [WSG] Form Validation error
Can I see the site Please? The big one I meant is covered with NDA, so I can't tell you. There are two more under development, one available to outside - a really small one on http://www.bonsoir.cz/obchod/ (I'm working on it right now, so not all parts rewritten yet) Only if deadline is not due :( That's up to you to properly plan the whole workflow and production process and set the appropriate timeline. -- Jan Brasna aka JohnyB :: www.alphanumeric.cz | www.janbrasna.com ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **
