Use forms with tab view

[olpf]

Hi,

I have a tabView and each show an individual search mask defined by a data model. So each tab can have different input elements and has its own "do search" button. Do I need for each tab an own form? Probably yes I would say. But then I have to nest forms because the tabView also needs a form. Is the nesting in this case ok?

Regards
Oliver

Hi!

No, you cannot nest forms. Never. Simply because nested forms are illegal HTML and wont work (or at least unexpectedly).

Give your tabs a form each and handle the tabChange-event yourself!

Ok thanks. This I have done now.
