moberemk Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 You don't need to include the input button. If we can't figure out how you marked up your forms, then we should be called amateurs and thrown to the wolves.That being said, did you include values and names for the options? I've done stupid stuff like that before.
