Sure enough Kirk!  That was it.  Seems strange that you can set a
name/value pair on the <form> tag, but they aren't used.  Guess they
were just kidding ;-)


The name attribute is used in javascript, for example when you are
changing a field value: document.formname.fieldname.value = 'foo';

which is a really crap way of referencing forms - besides given that a form is a unique entity its better to reference it by id IHMO. in a perfect world you could just use document.getElementById() and be done with it.


The value attribute does not exist for the form tag, go to http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_form.asp for a list of allowed attributes
