I'm still trying to understand why you need nested html form tags.

Are you trying to do a "wizard-like" form on a web page where the user is
taken through steps to complete a task?

Like this:
Step 1: User picks a Country from a Select list of Countries
Step 2: User picks a State/Province from a Select list of available
State/Province (based on what country from step 1)
Step 3: User picks a City based on state from step 2
Step ????? whatever

Is this what you are doing?
