Argh!

Help me out with my markup here. Exactly why are validators complaining about the search form? I’ve been staring myself blind at this for an hour now…

Update: Ha! Problem solved! I had to place the <form> tag outside of the paragraph tag that contained the input fields. What a perfectly obvious solution.

    I’ve run into similar problems in the past. For some reason, the validator doesn’t like where you’re sticking your FORM tags. Try moving them outside of the DIVs surrounding it, and see if that helps.

    as you already have noticed

    dosen’t allow forms inside of it. nore list and stuff like that. this is a very problem for me since I try using lists when in a text is doing just that, listing stuff. but no-no. The good thing is that in xhtml2

    are allowed to contain both lists and perhaps even forms :)
