Form names in T4.1

Hi all,

this is just a quick question, in previous versions of tapestry a Form was
assigned a name using the convention jwcid="someName@Form", however in
T4.1this no longer sets the name but assigns an id="someName".
Question is, how
do I assign a name to my Form component in 4.1, as informal parameters are
allowed but name is reserved?

Regards, Brian.

Hi Brian,

I'm not sure if this is the reasoning behind the change, but when using 
a strict doctype the form tag isn't allowed a name attribute and id is 
used instead. In tapestry 3 I had to rewrite the form component to use 
id rather than name.

Rewriting the form component to use name instead would be the obvious 
answer, but you probably need to consider whether you should actually be 
using name at all.

Regards,
Andrew
