You have to name the form as well and then the names will be unique. For example: TableForm(name='loginUserForm', fields=[TextField(name='userName'), TextField(name='passWord')])
Will produce these ids: loginUserForm_userName loginUserForm_passWord And similarily: TableForm(name='createUserForm', fields=[TextField(name='userName'), TextField(name='passWord')]) Will product these ids: createUserForm_userName createUserForm_passName On 11/10/06, iain duncan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Working through form tutorials, I got widget based forms generating ok. > However, I noticed that the input fields generated get the id tag of: > > id="form_name" where name is the whatever I called the input field in > the widget. > > Now, if I have more than one widget based form on the page at a time, > and they use similar fields, then I have multiple elements with the same > id value.
