Use attribute 'id' instead of 'name' in html:form-Tag
------- Additional Comments From sraeburn@apache.org 2004-01-01 00:32 -------
What about emitting both 'id' *and* 'name' (both equal to the form name) when
the page is in XHTML mode?
The page still wouldn't validate as XHTML 1.0 strict or XHTML 1.1, but it would
be usable and backwards compatible.
This would be similar to the <html:html> tag which emits both 'lang' and
'xml:lang' attributes even though 'lang' is not valid in strict XHTML.
A possible stricter interpretation would be to *always* emit id = name = form
name. AFAICT this should always be the case, even for HTML 4.01 (which also
recommends 'id' over 'name'). I don't see that it would cause any problems with
older standards either.
Can anyone think of a valid case where id != name ?
