Re: Why can't I name a form using html:form?

[Mark Lowe]

the name of the form will be whatever you called it in struts config. 
There was a name attribute in 1.0 but this became deprecated and now 
must have been removed.

I imagine that something will be done in newer releases (perhaps 
already) to support strict xhtml and thus do away with rendering 
name="" and use id="" instead or as well as name="".

If you're trying to drill to the form in javascript best use

onclick="alert( this.form.elements['myproperty'].value )" ..

I you look at the rendered html you'll see that the name attribute is 
rendered.

Why can't I name my forms?  I've looked at the documentation and the 
'name'
field doesn't even seem to exist, which leads me to believe I can't 
name
forms using the html:form tag?!

Is this a bug in Struts or have I missed something fundamental here?
